No chickens were harmed - Raccoon swarm

Those coon are not keeping the fox or bears away. Give them time they will investigate.

In this town they have busy schedules. Lots of coops to investigate. Don't know how they keep themselves organized.

i know but not many options unless your like the neighbor down the road who uses poison and tells people it's "not my fault they get into it". i prefer the shoot method but since thats not an option you locating them might be the only way. eventually they may find a way in then youll have to choose

Reading a few of the other predator threads - some folks have some methods.

The minute they get one they'll always hunt yours.

no trust me i know. but when it comes to down to it if i didnt have the option of firing a weapon then id relocate it or risk my birds. and im not risking my birds just to be nice to some coons

Other options other than a rifle. I know of one lady that got a pistol xbow. Traps then shoots. No noise.
