What to do with Predator birds

[lovemylilchicks]

I have 10 hens which I have had for about a year or so and I want them to have the availabilty to go out of the coop for exercise ad=nd hang out and eat more greens. How can I do that and feel good that they are safe. Will they come back to the coop by themselves or do I need to go find them?

If your chickens are about a year old they should be well aquainted with where their home roost is and will naturally return there at evening.
What is more of a concern is will they be safe during the day in this outside place you have for them?
Have your chickens not had access to outside in all this time?

they have never been outside. Now their coop is outside so they feel the wind hear the rain. Sometimes when i'm in the coop I leave the door open but they would rather get under foot than go out the door
