This coyote has been brave enough to come into yards in the neighborhood in the middle of the day while people were home, grab a chicken & take off with it!!
I'm actually using 3 thermometer's The digital one I got just to try to watch humidity...One came with the unit...and the 3rd is one I use for A/C on autos and is pretty accurate and sensitive..
Awesome advice, thanks.. I'm watching closely & humidity seems to be dropping about 8-10% an hour..hopefully I'll have it stable by morning to put the eggs in..
Thank you for the advice....After I removed the plugs again it came down to 65%...I emptyed most all the water to see how it stabilizes now...Planning on putting eggs in tomorrow am, so I hope I can it to the proper numbers..
neighbors are losing chickens also, sometimes up to 5 a night...some are saying they've seen a cougar or small mountain lion..we're setting a more serious trap near the live trap over the weekend to see what we catch..
The hen we lost was the one in the cage, I'm wondering what breed she was as we've attempted to sell out & everyone wants 1 or 2 but I won't sell unless they take all w/coop & accessories. If I can't sell I'd like to replace the one we lost with a couple more of the same breed..
