They live in a coop and a run up until now but go out free for a couple of hours every day.
They've all stopped laying and they're 3 so not so much time left for the old girls.
They'd love nothing more than to run loose. The downside to this is the hawks, eagles fishers and possibly bummy dog are going to be a fairly big threat.
Dh says it's kinder to let them loose in the day and be happy little bok bok girls and still lock them up at night if they want to be than one by one getting sick and probably dying slowly.
They'd probably only get a month of it as when the snow hits they hide in their coop for months anyway.
Wwyd?
