They're cooped up keep them out of the garden, right? Oy. :) There's electric net fence made by premier one, for chickens, that's fairly easy to move around, so chickens can be out, but not get into places they shouldn't. I know--another expense... but an option.

I am not trying to promote him, just sharing info. :) He covers fence for goats, but the company makes fence for most farm animals.
I'm not trying to push you into more chickens! ! Really! ! :) It's heartbreaking when you've lost your girls. I know! Then the weighing of is it worth it or not. My husband, @goatgarden, did a blog a couple weeks ago about the fence.

We were just discussing what to do next and my husband (who may someday find the time to join up here as pdude) thought of a way that we could expand and cover a new chicken door and run. Then there would be more room for more chicks next year and they would be protected from all those flying predators that like our neighborhood.
I do follow your husband already.
Thanks.
Good luck! ! And in the meantime, i hope Lee stays safe. :)
Thanks. I think with this kind of learn as you go life style luck does have a big part in it.
