My backyard hens haven’t been out of their pen for months. Usually I’ll let them wander around the backyard.

They have a 12’x25’ covered pen and a 6’x6’ hen house so they have plenty of indoor and enclosed/protected outdoor space.

And wild birds can’t get near them, so they’re fine. It’s been close to me, but not too close. I would hate to put my hens down- most I’ve raised from day old chicks.
