Hi I'm confused on how best to house 6 chooks. At the moment they are in an immobile 11ft by 11ft run with a wooden house. I let them out to free range. We have a big garden, about acre and a half. I know in the spring they will annoy me digging up veg and plants so I will need to contain them but think the permanent run will be miserable. Should I fence off a big area of garden? How big would it need to be to avoid it becoming a mud run. Alternatively I could put them in eglu cube with run and move it around but that would feel v restrictive. I like seeing them scratching around the place. What would you do please? All involves more money of course.
