I free-range my Barr rock chickens, they took to it great. However most birds will, they naturally want to hunt and peck for food, so it is easy to entice them out. if you live in town, you may want to check up on your local ordinances, however I find a rooster to be invaluable for freeranging hens. He protects them and keeps them togeather. But if a rooster is not allowed, an enclosed yard should be enough.
 
Hi :welcome

Glad you could join the flock! You might like to pop your state thread for other keepers in your area who could advise you on what birds are best for your area. State threads can be found here ~https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/26/where-am-i-where-are-you

Wishing you the very best of luck in your new adventure. Enjoy BYC :frow
