[QUOTE="Blaithin, post: 6711277, member: 5764"] Fencing would be more for predator aversion as well as keeping LGDs close (if using them). Some set ups also only use the fencing at night once the birds are in bed against those predators My free range birds are also offered grain for their perusal which my cows know about and will take any chance to scoff down. Fencing helps dissuade them. Not all chickens like to stay with the flock and near safety and coops. Some become quite the rangers which can put them at risk and can make eggs difficult to find (if they’re egg layers and not meaties) For those birds fencing also helps. Lots of different methods and choices. [/QUOTE]
