Unfortunately, I don't think there is an answer. I think what most people do is to fence an area off for the chooks so they can have fun without upsetting the gardener. Either that or abandon all hope of growing those prize geraniums! :lol:
That's my plan, it'll be a combination of left over chicken wire, bits of pallets and whatever else I can scavenge.
I've tried reasoning with them but they don't listen, so I'm building fences instead.
