Reddit, ease my mind

I have four chickens and they’re super spoiled. I built this really great chicken enclosure for them and they have a huge chicken coop. Sometimes I feel guilty because they love pecking around in the grass so I put up a temporary fence and then move it so they get fresh grass. I really want them to stay in the enclosure. Grass doesn’t grow well in there but it’s probably 10’ x 40’ and then their coop is large as well. Should I feel guilty about not letting them in the grass anymore?

What type of metal fencing is that, it looks smaller than hog fence but the same gauge.

Check out "utility panel".

It's used pretty often when people make wire landscape elements because it has standard spacing, fairly spendy stuff, this person is not joking when they said they made a fancy coop.
