Is it possible to teach boundaries to a free range flock? My 4 chickens have recently started ranging a bit to far (into my neighbors driveway/land). When I see them over there I go outside and shoo them back onto my land.
 
Ha, if you want to teach 'em boundries, use a fence!

Not as funny as you think as some wisdom hiding there. Fence need not be chicken tight. If it provides cover, flock can spend more time foraging along it rather than going further a feild. Also place a feeding station in direction you want birds to go in and place that near cover that they might want to loaf in.
