so today I was walking out to the chicken coop and they were free ranging close to the coop. All of the sudden i heard squaking. I started running just to see in time to see a cat with a chicken in its mouth jumping over the fence!!!! I started chasing it and jumped over the bob wire fence. I couldn't catch it and my husband came running with the shotgun! All I found was some black feathers. I started to panic because I let out a black serama today to free range because she rushed the gate and I was feeling guilty. I ran back to the coop and found her......but it could have easily been her! We are setting an animal trap tonight and will start catching them. Sorry Cat lovers. We love cats to but they are vicious feral vampire cats that have been eating my chickens for years now!! and I have finally had enough. I would take them to the Humane Society but it is 2 hours away and they would just get put down because they are feral. I am not sure what to do with them after we catch them but to maybe take them to some local people for barn cats, but they just breeding. My husband is made because he has to...in his words... hear them fornicating on our property at night, like it is a brothel!!
