How do I get rid of snakes?
I think I have several predators getting my chickens and I don't know where or how they are getting in. First it was just my baby chicks, and eggs, set rat traps and a small live trap. Nothing disturbed, nothing bothered. Next day trap was tripped but nothing in it. Babies were left alone for a while.
This morning babies are gone , traps are tripped and absolutely nothing caught, again, could this be a snake.
Now something is getting the adults. One was found with her head ripped off and partially eaten and then another was found dead partially eaten.
I figure maybe a snake on the first part of this posting, but on the latter, I always thought coons would eat the whole chicken. I'm totally confused. I don't know how to catch this thing, whatever it is
