Live on 18+ acres and my chicken coop and organic garden is in my FRONT YARD . . .
Yes people drive up to my house and the first thing they see is my garden/chicken area and a great big deer/groundhog electric wire and plastic mesh fence over 6' tall
It is the SW exposure and one of the few areas not forested and it is well fenced cause I am surrounded by predators!
My chickens have over 2 acres to roam and scratch around, but they choose to come up to my flower beds and dig... And to poop on my porches. They are backyard chickens!
