    need to vent....

    hate to say it, but I have a similar mind to PickyChickie. What can you get that's more annoying than the roo and legal, too. I'd get that thing (chainsaw, hotrod, something REALLY stinky) and wear her out with it.

    So sorry to hear about your babies. I,too, live in florida. (gainesville). Be prepared for a much bigger predator than you are expecting. although fox is very likely-coyote would be my guess.
