There where, and still are, feathers laying all over the pen, along with a few other parts. I got some new baby chicks about a week ago. Before I let them into the run, should I completely [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I have had my 16 hens for a year now, and have not had a problem until this summer. They are pecking each others&#8217; feathers out. My hens are a variety of Rhode Island Reds, Orpingtons, Australorps, Wyandottes, and Leghorns (I wanted color!). I feed a complete crumble, plenty of water and roosting space, they [...]]]></description>

There&#8217;s no roosters. Just eleven hens. I most always let them out to wander the backyard at night for an hour or two before sunset.
I&#8217;ve been throwing out [...]]]></description>

There are many options for movable chicken enclosures but if you don&#8217;t mind, I&#8217;d like [...]]]></description>

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the question.
I wanted to answer both yours and Elinore&#8217;s question this week because some people confuse the two ideas.
