Interesting topic. There's a town in Georgia that has feral chickens roaming. Check it out. I'm not sure of the name but it was on the news once.

It works well enough to fool critters. It kept the hens focused too.

Yup. That old bait and switch

Yeah, looks more like clay

Yes. I've got plans for a new 24x32 run with a top (netting). Just haven't been able to get to it for the rain and work.

If you look very closely at the picture, you can see where teeth penetrated the egg.

Crooks!

Nah, plus the nest is inside the hen house

I use ceramic eggs for my girls nest eggs and went out today and found that something (possum or coon) thought it had a treat last night. It destroyed my nest egg. 😫 I'm tired of the pests.

This is the worse it's EVER been around here. I was raised here and EVERYBODY free-ranged back then. I NEVER lost a bird to aerial predators back then.

Wow! The majority of my birds taken were Easter eggers. There were some barred rock, buff orpington, one black Australorp too. The leghorns, the rir's, and red rangers have made it

I chose the hawk simply because they have less conscience about nabbing your birds. I've been right there and have them swoop in and take a chicken. With most other predators there's a season for them and they can legally be dealt with. Here, it's illegal to trap, kill or in any way harm them...

Thank God I found this. Thank you all for your help. I've been trying to get my eggs to peel like the store bought ones for about a week. I had all but given up. I couldn't do that though. I love boiled eggs. Again, thanks for the info.

Sure

I'm not sure myself. Google may be able to help with this. Me? I'm going to cross my buffs with a red ranger and call it an orange orpington

Wow

Yikes!

So the CDs work? I had an older farmer tell me that I need to kill that hawk and hang it from a tree. I told him, "if you get him, feel free to hang it."
