A couple of times I've walked in the run, only to have a chook jumping straight up, and tugging my hair!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762929509261919025.post-51228707854718286512010-09-12T22:42:18.504-07:002010-09-12T22:42:18.504-07:00Hmmm...that's a tough one.

You could build a secure run (pen) with strong fencing and a top to keep the hens safe.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591311147406307304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762929509261919025.post-941171800315486722010-09-12T22:38:07.666-07:002010-09-12T22:38:07.666-07:00We have two neighbors with dogs right next to our ...We have two neighbors with dogs right next to our property. There is a 6 foot chainlink fence that separates us from the dogs. My main concern is if the chickens were to ever jump over the fence. :( I don't want the dogs to get to any of the girls. Also, I'm concerned with the dogs constantly barking at the chickens and scarying them.meemsnychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10584936035577822444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762929509261919025.post-30184765914322225742010-09-12T22:36:02.993-07:002010-09-12T22:36:02.993-07:00Meemsync, one question: Do any of your neighbors ...Meemsync, one question: Do any of your neighbors have a dog? Cuz if they do, then I'll guarantee you it's louder than hens :) Really, the hens make very little noise. And they are silent when it's dark outside.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591311147406307304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762929509261919025.post-3957380397738660052010-09-12T22:24:27.402-07:002010-09-12T22:24:27.402-07:00What an adorable video!

Do they mind your chickens. Are chickens noisy?meemsnychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10584936035577822444noreply@blogger.com
