This might be a stupid question but I have read that several people let their chickens out during the day to roam the yard or where ever they are at. How would you guys catch them when it's time for them to go back in?
We just got our first chickens ever a few weeks ago and DH is building the hen house and run as I type but it would be nice to let them out in the yard when the weather is nice. But I can't see myself catching them. Right now they are in a little chicken hutch since they are only 3 1/2 weeks old, but they are pretty skittish.
I'd really love to know how people deal with that.
Thanks.
