Hi, I'm in Plymouth Massachusetts and watched a fisher sit high in our trees and stare at our flock for an hour. My three Great Danes were outside barking at it so I think that's why it hasn't come down yet. What worked keeping your fisher away?
One of my chicks hatched about an hour or so ago. I've noticed one of her feet isn't spreading out when she walks. I'm a paranoid mama anyways so this is freaking me out. Is there anything I should be doing for her to ensure proper development

I think that's right down tw street form me and I have chickens! We have zero laws against them. We do have a nuisance law though. If a rooster becomes too much of a problem and they receive so many calls that it becomes a "nuisance" to fe town we would have to get rid of him.
