Sorry for posting so much.! just really looking for help! I have 3 roosters, 4 hens and 2 ducks. Right now i have 1 rooster and 4 hens living together. The ducks just got moved due to them attacking my chickens(moving the ducks back soon,hopefully). My 2 other roosters are seperated due to them attacking me. I didnt know if maybe changing to free range would reduce the issues. Im also probably adding 2 more chickens to the mix as well. There is alot of land. But im terrifed they will run off. There is a fence but not chicken wire so they could get out. We live next to a higway also. The fence is far back away from the highway. but still. Im also worried about fox or hawk to get them too. Also there are 3 goats that walk around the land. So not sure. If i let them free range would it be safe and would it reduce conflict within my flock?
