Hello.. I’m a new member and appreciate having this group.. I have a hen with 13 babies that comes to our yard every day.. I feed them and the hen has been around for a year or so.. Had a rooster but captured him snd took to a farm.. love these chickens but they tear up the mulch which doesn’t make my husband happy..

Hi, thanks for joining us! Chickens can make a mess with yards and gardens. You might try fencing areas off you don't want them in.

Thanks for joining us!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
If you want to keep this hen and her chicks, you might want to build a coop and large, secure run to keep them in. If you didn't want the rooster, the cockerel chicks will need to be rehomed when they start coming of age. The only way to keep the chickens out of your gardens is to fence the gardens in or fence the chickens in.
