So far I started stringing a heavyweight line diagonally across the top of the coop until I can get a more secure method of protection. I havent noticed any missing since last night but the predator is probably still digesting I can confirm that it is some sort of bird of prey because I found...

I have the chicken wire with heavier metal gate panels used for the cow corral reinforcementing the back side where there is a lot of brush cover. The criss cross method is a good idea. I have not seen a fox around our house but I have seen one 5 or so miles away and my uncle shot and killed one...

No I havent. I didnt know there was such a thing. I tried asking my mom's husband what I could do about a top to avoid areal attack but he just brushed me off and gave me electric fence wire, that is probably as old as I am and stubborn to work with since it's all tangled, to string across the...
