    CANNOT catch the raccoon!!

    actually since you say that, I may place the trap out side the run. The back side of my run runs along side a fence so there is a little allyway. Back there is were he pulled the chicken wire off the wood. Do you think that would work better? or placing the trap in the coop?

    Has anyone ordered from Welp Hatchery?

    I got an advertisment for Welp Hatcheries, what I was suprised to find out, is that they offer free shipping. Since that is usually the biggest expense for me when ordering chicks, this sounded great. But I wanted to find out what others thought of them
