    Hens Dead, Pulled Out of Coop, Heads/Necks Missing

    We have a chain link fence. I imagine they just climbed right over. :-\ I never imagined a raccoon killing my entire flock. I knew wild animals live in the city too, just didn't realize raccoons could be so vicious to a flock. Lesson learned. We set a live trap last night. We'll see if we...

    Hens Dead, Pulled Out of Coop, Heads/Necks Missing

    We live in a suburban neighborhood in NE Oklahoma. We have a fenced backyard. We have a coop, which we left open because our hens free range and we naively assumed predators wouldn't be as big of an issue in the city. Last night, something got all six of our hens. The hens were in the coop...

    Are These Buff Orpington Chicks? (1-2 Weeks)

    Upon closer investigation, I'm starting to get hope they are not a meat chicken (which wouldn't be the end of the world, but that's not what we were going for). Granted, they're only a 1-2 weeks old, but they are in no way more "meaty" than the new chicks I have. I'll post an update in a few...
