Soory for the loss of your birds. I am free ranging one bird this year he is a small rooster that is bottom of the pecking order. So far so good and I tested my solar fence just to be sure if he gets it they can't go into coops for more. I do plan to process him soon, have to find my egg eaters and cull them so he is going the same day. But for now I am not paying for feeed for him. Fence tested out at 8,600 volts, I think thats gonna leave a mark!
