Is there enough room under your row covers to have chickens or geese?

We use row cover, as protection from insects, to cover almost three acres
of lettuce, chard, kale, broccoli(only for a few weeks), beets, etc. We
have been using Agribon 17 for abouto four years now-after many trials and
errors, we finally discovered that 5/8 rebar, cut into 10' sections, holds
the cover done in our extremely windy area. The cover is used for insect
suppression only.
