We lost over 40 hens (laying) to raccoons in less than a week. We found small holes where they were burrowing under the coop....so, we covered them by nailing some extra fencing (don't know what he used) and that didn't stop them, so we put cement blocks over the area....they just moved them...
Looking to buy laying hens. We've lost over half of our existing group to predators and have, since secured everything, as much as possible. Also, lost our rooster....so, we're looking to add another one.
