    They will be back. You really need to get something that orotects,not only your chickens but your family members also. Things have a hbit of only getting worse. Protect you loved one;s.

    New RIR Flock... what to look for....Update-They're HOME!!!!

    Congrats on your RIR, they are a great breed to have no matter their age. They will form their own pecking order quickly after getting settled in. You should just watch them for a few days just so none realy get hurt,but they will be ok.

    how long after dark does a raccoon come out?

    We see them right at dusk,and early in the a.m. They were in the yard at 6: am this morning. with the electric fence on they didn't even go close to the run.

    money's tight... out of feed

    My rule of thumb- If I can eat it so can the girls. Been throwing mine more scraps lately, it's treat to them.Lots of garden stuff lately.

    how to handle this?

    Put up an electric fence,an hang a strip of bacon from it. That should take care of the dog problem. As far as the child, call both the police and children services.Parents won't care,maybe after being cited for the loss of your chicks they might get that they need to watch their kid.

    Washington State Dep. of Wildlife---AHHHH!! They wont help!!

    How about trying an electric fence? Would't stop it from going over but might stop it from getting into the coop. Good luck on whatever you do.
