    How can you free range with a hawk in the neighborhood?

    Keep the chicken away from the others because they wont stop pecking at the wound. For the hawk problem some states let you shoot em if they are eating your chickens but you caint do that. All the hawk attacks i witnessed I just ran over as fast as I could to scare it off before it does any...

    Feral Cat Problem.

    The one I got a few weeks ago I trapped. The one that I got last night I just saw him and got the gun as quickly as possible. Just have the gun close by so you can get it fast when you see them again. You can all out hunt them if you have a good dog you can tree them then take them out.
