[QUOTE="GTS225, post: 487411, member: 6678"] Sounds like the womenfolk want some "pets" that will also supply a modicum of food. Bad idea......they'll get attached, and won't view them as a source of meat. Predators......the worst ones will be neighborhood dogs. If they get into the enclosure, it's a sport. They'll catch and kill one, drop it, and go after another. Mom had chickens when I was a kid. One incident, we lost 8 chickens to one dog before we could get out there to end it. If you REALLY have to persue it, I suggest you investigate building a chicken "tractor", especially if the available enclosure area is limited. Just my thoughts.....Roger [/QUOTE]
