Quote: I built the chicken coop onto the back of my horses stall. I have never had a problem with any of the larger prey animals getting our coop. We have all kinds of problems with bears, fox, coyote, and coons. They have never in 3.5 years been raided until a weasel worked its way in. The...

I have 3, but I would love to post a picture of the love of my life. He owned me for 17 years and I had to put him down due to old age. He was around 28 to 30 when pts. He had gone blind in the last 6 years of his life. He was a very severe neglect case. He was in a stall for over 5 years before...

I am also a horse person. I'm crying right with you on this one. I have rescue horses myself. I rescued a pony mare from a slaughter pen. She was so abused and frightened of humans. I knew when I took her she was only going to be a pasture pet. She ended up being the eyes for my other rescued...

I just can't get over it. It is making tunnels under the snow and has not appeared on top at all. There is not a single track in the snow from it. We have found its tunnels. I'm trying to bait it, but so far have been unsuccessful. Thanks for the info brooster. I have no idea if the last one...

Well as I posted recently about a weasel visiting my coop and killing 2 of our very much loved chickens we have another visitor. It is another weasel and its under our back porch where our chickens are now living. It must of been a stellar year for them. I just cant believe it and I'm hoping...

I agree, my chickens would gobble the mice right up. If I found a dead mouse in my horses bucket and threw it out back the chickens would fight over it.

I was terrible at first allowing my 1 remaining chick to live in the house. She didn't seem too bothered by it or by being the only chick left. I had mirrors set up for her and she followed me all over the house and got spoiled (thank goodness for floors that could be washed) I put news paper...

I recently had the same problem with a weasel. Yes it did attack my chickens in the broad of day. They are very aggressive and will not think much about attacking humans. My Farrier is having issues at his house too with a weasel. He has confined his flock to dog crates in his garage. He is...

Its very common for the weasel type animals to be aggressive. They don't think about the size of the things they attack. The weasel that attacked my SO was tested and it was negative. They are also a very fast moving animal so its very uncommon for them to get rabies...per Fish and Game. I...

You want to use a screen just like the screen on your house windows. We had to kill the weasel too, as the thing was very aggressive and was "casing" my house. I just posted about it not too long ago. It also attacked my SO and thats when he killed it with a shovel. Good luck and I do hope...

I feel for you there. I live in NH (maybe we're close by) and I just had this same thing happen to me but with a weasel. There are 2 different types of weasels here. One is a short tail and it doesn't turn white in the winter. The other is a long tail that does turn white in the winter. I see...

I completely understand where your coming from. I live in NH and although ours are black bears we have a horrible time with them. They will attack and they have become over populated. I dread spring because that is when they are by far the worse. People here are to blame! They think its cute to...

I had a weasel attack our chickens. I had one surviving and I ended up having Princess pts because she was just declining and barely hanging on. I now have just one remaining chicken who has been living in an unheated room in my house. I am going to make a coop out on the back porch for her...

Thank you both for the reply. I have tried the toilet paper roll and it works ok. I will give the other a shot. I think I have what your talking about. I edited to add; I see that I can get antibiotics on line. Do you need a licence for that? I wouldnt mind trying some. Can someone give me an...

Hi all - So here I am once again looking for any type of help. Our chick (Princess) is still hanging on. It appears to have done some type of damage to her neck. I have been feeding her through an eye dropper and she is still interested in food. She stands, but when it comes to moving her neck...

Ok, I've been feeding her about every 2 hours. She is eating somewhat slowly. I'm going to disolve the asprin into her mush that I made. Is it possible to over do it? I dont want to do more harm with the asprin.

Thanks all who replied. I have called F&G and they are going to take it and test it. I just have to cut the tree to retrieve it. Chickens dont get rabies so we could only be exposed if I was to have gotten saliva off of the chicken. F&G said it really wasnt that uncommon for them to be...

Ok thats good to know, thank you. What type of baby asprin? I have motrin or bayer.

Thanks, but I've heard from others that they can be aggressive, but I will check into it.
