Hi guys. I have loved reading your posts and thought I might wade in. I live on a 5 acre plot with a small dam and a mix of grassed lawn and wooded areas. I've kept chickens before and now I'm looking to start again with chickens, ducks, geese and some turkeys. I've read into housing them and dietary requirements so I'm well set. We have a penned area around the coop but when they are free ranging, do we need to chicken wire the perimeter of the property? Wondering if they will know where home is after being penned for a few weeks or if they're likely to just wander off under/over the fence or if the land is big enough?
