We keep them in movable coops with solar powered electric fences around them. This allows them access to grass and bugs and adventure, while protecting them from hawks and coyotes.

A picture of Rhode Island Red--a reddish brown chicken with muddy feet and some black on her tail feathers pecking at something in some spring mud and early greenery.
A group of chickens foraging outside in the grass. You can see the coop behind them with some plywood for hawk cover. There's a movable fence keeping the hens near the coop.
