Hi!
I just got a Rooster, Hen and 5 chicks (learning to fly now) from a friend...
We got them to roam the yard and eat bugs.
They found the woods and won't come out, except for the Rooster,
who comes out at dusk to go to the White pine (like at our friends house)
to roost for the night.
the Hen and her chicks will not come out of the woods at all...
we have tried throwing scratch, hen and chick food near the edge of the woods to entice them out,
even putting a bit in the woods for them to follow out.
How can i coax them out without chasing them out?
