    Possum problem

    True. But I think if there is a readily available food source, they are less likely to go after the chickens. Putting the food at a distance is a good idea.

    Unsalted vs salted butter

    Unsalted vs salted butter

    What is best to use for a dog diaper for an english bulldog?

    Go to amazon.com. There is a big variety of underpants available for dogs. Some are really cute with ruffles and all. Some are washable. Some are disposable. Big variety of styles and sizes. I am sure you can find something that will work.

    maremma, great pyr or anatolian shepard to guard chickens?

    I think they protect the property rather than poultry or turtles.
