Hey all,
I just wanted opinions on how you keep your chickens, I free range mine but was wondering what your opinions were on it. I had an accident with a weasle/mink yesterday and I'm weighing my options if I should turn to a run rather than free range. What are your thoughts?
I didn't know such things existed until yesterday so I'm looking into it!!What about a timer on the coop door?
I'll have to try that! Catching them one by one definitely wouldn't be an option haha! Thank yiu!!@Quiggy, you asked how I get mine into the coops? Bribery!! Mine LOVE scratch and I open the garbage can where I store it, yell, "Chick, chick," and run toward their coops with a scratch-filled scoop in hand. The way to my chickens' hearts is truly through their stomachs as they dash into the coops for the treat.
For those who allow free range on weekends/ or while at home only, have you noticed your chickens being especially grumpy while confined?
