Hi everyone!! We have seen two black snakes around in the yard, and we want to make sure they don’t ever reach our chicken coop or near their run. We want to know if there have been any methods that have worked and if there are any natural repellents? I’ve heard cinnamon, garlic, or onions work...
I caught the first rat snake today in bird netting! Yay! Thanks so much for this forum, where we can learn from others and care for our flocks! The bird meeting was wadded up under the nesting boxes and it took about 4 days. The rat snake is about 6ft long. We’ve lost 2 chickens it tried to eat...
