He informed me that I should keep them in the pen for about a week, they should be comfortable by then to roam as we have free range birds on our place. It will surprise you to know that the first day our peahen "flew the coup" literally but she stayed within our acreage. Let it be known, however, that it was quite a workout to catch her. The next day our male was out and stayed within our boundries, he wasn't too bad to catch. Now they are in the pen, together and I'll keep them there for at least the week. Good luck!!! Hi Martha

We have several acres in the county and I fear fox and racoons. Can they roam during the day and then roost in the coop at night or will they find the highest tree and roost there?
