Hi everyone, Im new to keeping chickens, we live on a farm with a small flock of 6 young hens. My chickens have a huge coop and everything they need.....but what they really want is to come inside the house. When ever there is a door open they just come on inside. They have even managed to make their way threw a couple of windows in their attempt to discover where the people live. We chase them out, or pick them up and place them outside but it never discourages them from wandering in again the next time Im not looking. The problem with this is they poo all over my floor (carpet). I have 2 young toddlers and I need to keep the chicken poo away from them. However my attempts at laying down a "no chickens in the house" rule is not working.
Desperatly needing some advice on how to train my chickens to stay outside!
