That's what we had to do, and even then, Roy would flap over a low spot in the fence and snack on our strawberries!

Well, I took care of that, I tell ya.

I took a couple of plastic grocery bags, you know? Took them in the run (they are enclosed in a large run now, that we can rotate around the yard) and shook them at the chickens. Scared the bejeebies out of them...they stood around with their heads up bocking like crazy for a long time after. Then I tied several of those bags to the low spot and now Roy won't go near it.
