    Hey guys/gals need your opinions and thoughts. Today after work, I took a look around the yard and the coop again I found a foot print. Anyone know what it is? NOTE: THERE IS A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF BLOOD IN THIS PIC VIEWER DISCRESSION IS ADVISED!!!

    So I've figured out that Honey the golden one is a Welsummer Bantam and Beaker the black one is a Black Chochin. So now that we know that we know what to look for when were ready for 2 more. Any advice on where to buy them online?

    Thank you everyone for the support and kind words. Would putting a chain link fence around the coop with some type of wire over the top of it do the trick? Also thinking about installing some motion detected lights as well on the back side of the house.

    FireTigeris, that is a very kind offer. Thank you very much. I have asked the wife if she wanted some more right away and she sadly said no, not right now. So I guess she just needs some time Plus that will give me some time to predator proof it.

    Quote: Yes my feelings exactly I feel bad for my wife. It was her idea to have chickens and I grew to love the idea and love them like a pet. After some more grieving and predator proofing we will get 2 more hopefully similar looking.

    After reading some stuff on here I'm leaning to either a ferret or raccoon. From the looks and sounds of it the golden one lost its head after reaching out the water hole but the main thing is it had bite marks on its actual body. But was about a foot away from the watering hole. The black one...

    I think we are going to go with the 3rd one. The guy is very nice and makes these as a hobby year round. He makes the generic ones that are in his ad, and can make one per your order as well. We want the white medium one that way the birds have some more room to run around. He said he can also...
