    Well, you probably could let them wander as long as it is safe for them. Sometimes it is nice to contain them to certain areas because of poop 💩 and they eat everything in sight. Husband's get fussy about those sorts of things, lol. So, maybe a goal could be to put a gate from fence to house...

    Flying out Tuesday, Kauai - Maui, to spend the day with my boy. Change his scenery, have some lunch, chat, get him anything he may need but mostly hope he wants to come home with me. He is in the MWM in Wailuku, an escapee from Lahaina. Lost it all but hanging in there. Have lost contact with a...

    Ewww! Yes, smuckerberg needed his twin weasel on island to scope out more acreage.. No love for zuck-us-all-berg. He has done far worse with bigger repercussions than mongoose. Makes me want to bathe in lysol just thinking about it. Well, it is not the first spotted and trapped, obviously not...

    This morning I let Ivan out to stretch his legs. He is a bit of a dork, won't stay still etc. But he is a good boy and makes nice babies. He was doing well, charming the ladies... 😉😉😉 I was impressed! And then he got in his own way again...clearly it was time for him to be put back into his pen...

    At least we don't have raccoons, hawks, coyotes, snakes, bears, weasels, opossums etc, etc. ETC! Pretty lucky we live Hawaii 🌴😎🤙 Plus you are in a very exceptional spot @raingarden ... and you seem like a pretty smart and resourceful person. I don't know anyone who has had a big problem with...

    Oh gosh, your mongoose sound like little nightmare monsters. My step daughter kept chickens in Kahalu'u and had no problems with mongoose that I am aware of. She purchased her girls a little older from a breeder close by (I think). She free ranged them and maintained her flock for at least a...

    After your nice long wake up note, I had to kinda kick myself that my response was so milk toast. Sorry @raingarden . I'll try again! My DH and I were just chatting about guinea fowl on Oahu after watching a farmer on YouTube. How random. We have never talked about it ever b4. You must have a...

    Aloha @raingarden & welcome to byc! Yes, I notice good old fashioned welded wire is few and far. Too bad, it's nice stuff. We are held hostage by the big box stores that we support here on Kauai. Ayam cemani sounds like a fun project to keep you busy. What a crazy wild beautiful chicken! Hoping...

    That is so cool! OK. I feel like my foot is in my mouth (again!) lol. I should have know better. My gal pal would tell me when an animal came into my life it fell into a tub of butter... I think your critters did too. Lucky little buggahs. :love

    Hmmm. I thought your carrier was for nesting. Chickens love to roost when they sleep. I don't mean to get into the unsolicited advice thing cuz you know your bird and all and in Hawaii our conditions are different than the mainland for sure. BUT! I go find me a nice stick the size of my forearm...

    So pretty! and Bravo on the coop 😍🤩😍 I love to share the eggs. Seems like the best part... well, eating them is pretty darn awesome too. I often check out other islands cl because I do some hatching and selling myself and I like to see who is doing what and the BI has it going on. I think I have...

    Good plan! AND I am sure that little work hen will love taking advantage of your good nature lol. Welcome to chicken world lol. I chat with a gal a few towns away who loves and photographs the ferals. Does a fabulous job of it too!! They tend to be to flighty for me but I did rescue a couple of...

    Aloha from Kauai @elisajp welcome to BYC 🌴:frow Cute little gal and congrats on the start of your flock. ALWAYS good to have more than 1 chicken as they are prey animals and need to be with others of their own- even if you think that they think they are human, a dog or a cat. Always fabulous to...

    Aloha @Harley8181 welcome to BYC! I totally commend you on raising the wild child chicks, I'm sure they appreciate that too for sure. They are a tuff breed to start with. You can always try to take them off their perch and place them on the roost you would like in the late eves with a hand or...
