AHHHH!you have got to be kidding me!

So I have had this beautiful family of fox around my house, and they have been teaching the little ones how to hunt, on my birds of course. So after I lost 8 turkeys, 4 hens and numerous ducks I finally was able to finish the fence. Well come home from the movies and one of my hens is gone, no sign of her to be found. And the fella who we buy our beef from stops by to drop off our order for a side of beef, and he says "I thought you'd like to know I heard an owl in your yard."
AHHHHH!!!! You can't be serious! I can't get a break can I?

If you want a Rest put most of your Chickens and Ducks and Turkeys in there coop for a couple of days so that the owel and the foxes will think there nothing to hunt . ( not a good Speller )

I am so sorry for your losses.

I hope you get rid of all the predators soon!

owl = cover your run with cheap bird/deer netting.

This USED to work for me until this year. The result? An even hungrier and more aggressive predator.

most preds have a circuit or route anyways until one of the neighbors deals with the problem they will just keep trying to eat your birds or your neighbors until they defeat the fences etc I have owls and hawks and ospreys and they do not bother my birds mine are mostly under leantos the BOP are too large to be able to get under the leantos
