Well, now we have raccoon(s). We lost 9 chickens in 8 days, 5 just Saturday and Sunday! I have a trapper friend who just came out this morning and found raccoon poop and tracks along with pieces of my missing chickens! Soooo, now we are set with traps everywhere. I'm filling my big drum with water and am going to give them swimming lessons if we catch them.
I'm so sorry babies - I didn't keep you safe. I loved you all.
My beautiful Wendy, light Brahma hen
Puddles, dark Brahma roo. Buckie the copper Maran safe but lonely.
Snowflake and Dusky, buff/light Brahma cross and dark Brahma. Other dark Brahma and buff brahma safe.
Elphaba, buff Brahma hen
Buffy, buff orpington hen
Three young dark brahmas, not named yet.
Chuckie, light Brahma roo - now injured, not sure if he will live.
