Hello from Minnesota, USA

Hi. We will be moving to our new home with a 5 acre wooded lot. Surrounded by miles and miles of farm fields.

Hi Christian, great to have a member in Minnesota. With all that space you'll have room for lots of chickens. Looking forward to hearing about it.

Welcome to the forum Christian1971. Trees are great cover for chickens from excessive sun, but too many and they don't get enough as we found out last year. We are surrounded by miles of farmland as well. Spotted my first wild boar a few days ago- a huge beast which moved really fast and I hope it doesn't hit our enclosure because a bit of chicken wire certainly wouldn't stop it.
