hey Gwendalou and everybody! Oh Lordy I just love my chickens and they seem to love me! I wont keep a "Bad" one! Oh I have a couple of Fighters but those two gentlemen are in separate coops! When I get there new run made I will introduce their Hens to them and keep them separated from the rest of the population!
Yes I have two large pens , one is made from two 10 by 10 by 6 ft tall Dog enclosures! I just took them apart and rearranged the sides , so I now have three 10 ft panels on each side and one 10 ft panel on each end! Now, my OEG's( Old English Game ) Bantams have a 30 Ft by 10 Ft Run. I covered the top with a heavy duty mesh. I have a little chicken house inside for their night roost and egg boxes!
the second enclosure is a wire fenced Pen attached to an older henhouse! That too is topped, this one with wire! This way I dont have to clip the wings and ruin their beautiful feathers! ........and it keeps the Hawks at Bay!
