Hahha thats the way to teach them a lesson. I keep a pellet rifle by my door in case some come by. But i also extra reenforced my coop and run. But as we all know all it takes is no weak spot for them to come in

Wow sorry to hear that. Weasels are nasty and can fit through holes that we think would be too small for anything to get through
I didn’t realize the red squirrels had caused damage in the back of the coop. Last summer we had a horrible time with them doing damage, they caused damage to our garage too. I learned a hard lesson never underestimate predators, always be on guard. Just because you have never seen a certain predator doesn’t mean it’s not out there.

Thats so true and never thought of thought. Always expect the unexpected I guess. And i had squirrels chew away parts of my garage before and found a few dead ones in the roof after winter.

Hi! I am in northern NY, we have about 30 hens of all different breeds! Over the years, the things that have become important are a colorful egg basket, different colored birds, few broodies, and lower maintenance in cold weather. My favorite “older” bird is a Speckled Sussex, my favorite adult is a Naked Neck, and my favorite in the baby group we are integrating is a Cream Legbar. We love them all, each family member names a few in each batch we get, but I am the chicken mother. 
Person who feeds them and brings goodies has its perks.

They are loud at times. Now that we no longer live in the city I'm not worried about it much. We are looking at 4 runner ducks.

I can not get into the naked necks lol, probably same reason i do not like hairless cats. But they are starting to grow on me. And i get it i am the chicken dad lol thet hear my voice and come running. They know i will give them attention and food, probably care more about the food.Hi!
