they aren’t on the property line, but they are near it. We put up a large fence, but where the fence ends there is a space where they can peek into our yard and have a shot at them through some thick flower foliage.. We are going to extend the fence more.
This is land zoned for agriculture and “way out” in the country.. also in a state that is known for chickens and roosters, many houses here have dozens and dozens of roosters in their yard..I don’t think we are in the wrong for moving far out and keeping one rooster for food sustainability.
We also have 4 small children always in the yard. I would hope it’s not them shooting our chickens but also can’t think of what else would cause very similar wounds on their backs. And wonder how many others were shot, we only realized when we processed them and defeathered.
