    How did you come up with your screen name?

    Been a "cop" all my adult life and now I'm the cop on patrol for my chickens. My first thought for the name came to me when I was inquiring on how to protect my chickens from snakes and the such. Once a cop, always a cop!

    Just starting to "snake proof" coop, I have cooperheads, black snakes, all varietys... That's my concern, I just don't know what the coop will attact. I figured my best bet would be to pre-treat before I put the chics in the coop. Snake away has a mothball odor and a friend states she keeps...
