HI all! I have 9 chickens and 1 rooster and their coop is in a very large area that is fenced in. We got them as pullets in Spring and they've lived in this area the whole time. One of our neighbors has free range chickens that walk all over the neighborhood and some of them recently found our chicken area, which gave our chickens the great idea to jump the fence. So my question is, can we do anything to encourage them to stay in the fenced in area? Maybe netting over top? Or will they just come back to the coop still at night if they can go wherever they want?
