No, don't get me wrong- mine were enclosed until they were very large- and I'm not at all experienced with peas- I know many do house them in big runs and aviaries, and that's totally fine! I think if I could, I would, because I don't like the weather they expose themselves to nor the potential predation. i just literally forgot some folks do pen them as adults. I have marshmallow brain because I'm getting ready to drive my elder daughter to her first prom.
Someone posted an amazing aviary a few month ago that someone built for his peas he bought from her, now that I think of it...like a $50K wrought iron aviary.
If I could, I would, too!! For what it's worth, I had my pen covered in aviary netting from ebay, so if they flew into it, it was soft, and they got closed in the coop at night with their pals, the chickens. They all grew up in the run together, so they naturally went in the coop with the flock.
