    I've had chickens for about five years and had my first coon attack Sunday night/Monday morning. I had 12-15 juveniles that wouldn't coop up at night and lost three of them: one's head was gone and the other two looked fine. Consequently, I started cooping everyone up at night, even the ducks...

    I have two large dog kennels that I put my young chicks (7-8 weeks old) in, inside the coop. This lets the older birds get used to the new birds and the new birds get used to being inside the coop.

    I feed a mix of Layer Pellets, scratch and BOSS. During the summer months I ferment. I don't in the winter cuz it's too wet here on the Oregon coast. I also have crushed oyster shell available for whenever. I used to free range my birds, but the neighbors started complaining about the...
