Yeah with the setup covered and chain link it was a coon or possum. You really need to cover the botom of that setup in hardware cloth to stop anything from reaching in.

Coons and possums can and will tear into the fabric top to get in.

Cages if big enough are fine for a rabbit. Being outside is also fine as long as the rabbit is protected. Frankly I would take anything else they told you with a gain of salt.

I would get rid of the bucket and get a small kiddie pool.

Most of the time a removed head is a bird of prey of some sort. It's not uncommon for a coon to do it also. Owls often remove the head and go for the brain. I'm gonna lean torward that is your problem.

My coop only has 3 closed sides.

I see a few that are brown and black and a few that are black and brown:wee

I'm a flashlight nut, I have ones that are bright enough to catch things on fire. Back in the day granny used a mini mag.

Most broody birds won't like you touch them. Mine were all hand raised and I can pick them up any time I want much to the distain of my rooster. When they are boody you aint sticking your hand near them in the nest without getting pecked.

I've never owned a candler, just used a flashlight.

Sometimes things just don't work out. Aint your fault but you done more than I would have. Unless it's a rare breed or something I don't even bother.

Never heard either term in my 43 years, learn something new all the time.

You have a mutt

Whats this paint thing you speak of? My coop is tin and white. If you live in a hot area go light to reflect the summer heat. If in a cold area go dark to absorb the heat.

The height really doesn't factor in when you are looking at square footage for animals. Chickens spend most of their time on their feet. A 2x2 foot coop is only good one one bird even if it's 30 feet tall. IMHO I would never put my nest boxes under the roosts if that is what you are suggesting.

You say dutching I grew up calling it staking. My tomatos I drive a metal fence post next to the plant and tie the plant to it. Spraining I'm not sure of the correct term but that like growing cucumbers on a fence. I drive metal fence posts at a 45 degree angle and put cattle panels on them...

I would have booted her as far as I could and wouldn't feel bad for it. Geese can be aggressive and you don't want her to put you below her in the pecking order. She sees you as the top bird in the flock and is challenging you.

Thanks but it's all good. Between dad, my cuz, and I we keep it whooped. Dad and my cuz pretty much keep all the "standing up" work in the garden covered. I do the other 20%. Dad leaves me with 90% of the cattle work. Sad thing is we all disabled for different reasons.

Think another acre of dirt (2 total) , another few cases of quart jars, and a lot more back pain.

Yeah I was born in the back seat of a 69 malibu ss with a 427 powerglide. Cherry red, white vinyl top, black interior. Kept that car till I was 6. I remember going to races with him. Ya know back then we didn't need car seats or even to be buckled in. Dad moved to track racing when I was about...
