How you going to keep them down on the farm.... [View all]

I have a flock of chickens that free range on the 5 acres around the house. Usually they stay in bounds, but lately 1 rooster and 1 hen have been wandering. I found out the hen is crossing the road to get at bird seed dropped on the ground from a neighbor's feeder.

Any ideas short of penning the flock?

Pen the trouble makers?
