🐔 Raising Chickens: Getting them into the Coop

Well done on completing the quiz! Raising chickens is not just about providing feed and water; it's also about understanding their behavior and creating a comfortable environment for them. As you've learned, getting your chickens into the coop and training them to return on their own is a process that requires consistency, patience, and a few mealworms for good measure.

Chickens are creatures of habit. They thrive on routine and will naturally return to their coop at dusk. However, it's essential to ensure that the coop is secure and comfortable for them to roost and sleep. This includes having enough space for each bird, providing suitable roosting bars, and ensuring the coop is predator-proof.
