    Crowing Rooster ..all night long

    As I said it worked for us. The only way a chicken could choke is if it was to tight to begin with. It is really no different than putting a band on a chickens leg. Removing it was not an issue and I would not hesitate to use it again! Or the rooster goes to freezer camp.

    Crowing Rooster ..all night long

    Have tried a zip cable tie as choke collar. We used one on our rooster "Woody" years ago, it was very effective! The tie was a quarter of an inch wide, it was tightened gradually over a couple of days. We snipped off the excess length so an inch stuck out of his neck feathers. The zip was...

    Tempoary Barrier Fencing

    SA, I haven't had any birds get stuck in our netting. Our local squirrels are ground squirrels and are treated as pests as if they are mice or rats. We have a few but between hawks, coyotes, snakes and the occasional Bobcat the squirrels are not a big problem. BTW we are at 6500 ft/ 1676 m.
