Armadillos!?!??

[Desirai]

I have an armadillo that has taken it upon itself to dig all over my flower garden

I wonder if it will try to dig under my chicken coop fence?

If it gets into the run will it hurt my chickens?

It wouldn't hurt your chickens. Its main diet is grubs, worms, and bugs.

they wont hurt your chickens they will eat there eggs and dig a hole under there run that could let other predators in though

I have had similar problems with squirrels digging in my container garden. I went to the spice rack and sprinkled hot pepper powder on the soil. It is a good deterrent and will train the animals to avoid the container plants. I have also heard of sprinkling human hair around the garden as a deterrent.
