Easy to add netting to keep them in the yard. Its amazing how good a job it does.Oh no!We had a dog come into our yard a few years ago and kill all of our chickens accept for 2 of the youngest ones who flew into our neighbors yard.Ever since the drama it has become their special place flying over every day teaching the youngest ones to follow the example!
Our girl is a blue heeler mix. Mostly heeler she has a lot of white so we know something is in there. She was a rescue dog for us; she has been around chicks and ducks from day 1, and they trust her enough to steal apples from her (lol). She will not tolerate any OTHER chickens tho - she chases off our neighbors chickens from 2 doors down (he lets them run wild). Cats as well. Our cats - fine. Others get chased away. Not attacked, just run off. And she never leaves the property.
Lol, my Shelties have built-in time-keepers too, but they totally don't get Daylight Savings! They know to the minute when it's their feeding time, and an hour later when I'm supposed to feed the chickens and gather eggs. Locking the chickens up is problematic though, as we go by the sun, not the clock, and they haven't figured that one out! Dogs are funny people.
Exactly the same here! Damn daylight savings throws her a bit!Lol, my Shelties have built-in time-keepers too, but they totally don't get Daylight Savings!
