The cause of all the confusion was moving this bamboo from in front of the House for Hens to alongside and to its right! A distance of less than 2 metres. Who could have predicted that such a minor move would mean that for 3 nights 4 out of 5 chickens couldn't find their way in to roost? I did of course place them inside myself for those nights. All is now well again and they have been enjoying scratching around in their new woodchip. They also had a day of added freedom as they had the run of the entire garden and went out on slug patrol. I don't think it's such a bad idea to do that once a month. After all, it only takes a few minutes to whiz round with the blower and tidy up after them.
