So having solved the ‘chickens can wander off down the drive ‘ issue of earlier this week I was feeling very calm and happy about our new chickens wandering about the garden all day. Then just now DD has come in to say that a buzzard swooped down and hid unconvincingly in the hedge as she was putting the chickens back in the run. They are safe for the night as the run is covered but does this mean their days are numbered?? I really want them to free range as much as possible but I can’t watch them so they are unprotected.
