I put a lot of effort and time into it, but for the longest time Nala, my parents' baby girl dog (my sister in some way haha) made it almost impossible. Sometimes she’d randomly sprint at them and try to jump into the coup, and the poor chickens would scatter. I was ready to give up and build higher fencing, but I tried a GPS collar from SATELLAI instead, which my own dog has used one with different color for a while. I set a no-go zone around the coop inside her original safe area, and to my surprise she actually gets it after some training. Of course, Nala is not crazy about the hens in any way, she's just a bit naughty. Now the hens wander in peace and Nala still gets to zoom around the yard freely away from the coop. Feels like a win for everyone.
Actually the chickens are producing eggs here and there now and I’m very proud. I currently have 4 hens, do you think I should add more?
