I have also pondered doing a boxed bed design along the fence, and topping it with chicken wire; that would allow them to eat only down to where the poor plants could survive, but not be killed; the idea came about when i planted cat grass in a box for the kitty and between them and the cat i ended up having to throw a grate over top of the box so they didn't kill the stuff. Then i though "what if i did this on a larger scale?" Hmm. Strawberries, cat grass, lemon grass, whatever is good for them .......... And if you do even so much as import scrub brush from the woods, a good layer of gravel around the base will keep it from getting ripped out and still allow for cover! When i fenced in my run i included a few misc. scrub "bushes" in the one corner and that is a favored hang-out now.
