Hello All

[rmotoman]

I'm a new member having owned chickens for about 10 years. I currently have 3 iso browns. They have been good layers. I had been letting them free range during the day but a coyote has reduced my flock in half so looking to build a fence. Looks like a great community.

Hello, Rick, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Consider a large pen enclosed in electric wire. That keeps my flock safe.

Hi Rick, sorry for your losses...that's the downside to free ranging.

Welcome to Backyard Chickens. I agree with Dobie Lover. If you also have flying predators- some type of coop roof will help safeguard your birds.
