After a week of being shut in their run 24/7, on the weekend we started letting the chooks 'free range'. They are very well behaved (well as far as chooks can be expected to be), not trying to fly over the fence or anything. Although at the end of the day, when they usually move themselves into the chook house, only one chook was smart enough to find its own way. The other three would pace up and down the outside of the chickenwire and not go around to the opening to get in. So for two days, both peter and I would have to go out there and herd the remaining three around to the opening and in. But tonight there was progress and all four made their way back into the run and into their house all by themselves!
