What say ye??
Putting electric fence on the inside of a chicken run? Ron's not a
chicken man, is he?
I see a hen getting zapped and either dying of shock, pun intended,
or doing what hens do best, going bonkers, running all over the place
flapping wings and squawking incessantly that the sky is falling,
which of course will instantly rile up the other biddies, which means bedlam.
The entertainment value would be great but egg production will suffer.
Inform Ron that the size of a hen brain is about the size of a grain
of sand so they are not fast learners.
