Around this time of year, the coyotes and foxes feast on our chickens, so we always put them in our barn for safety. Our birds have been in the barn for about 3 or 4 weeks now, and we haven't heard the coyotes in a while. We just don't want to let them out again, and then they all get eaten the next day. (The reason why we can't just keep them in the barn year-round is because it isn't a very large space, and they have no access to grass and sunlight, and they are unhappy. It is also a pain to check on them/collect eggs because they all try to escape) So, do you think it is safe for us to let our chickens back out to their normal coop and let them free-range?
