Hi, I have 3 chickens about 8 weeks old in what I think to be a secure chicken coop outside. We live in a suburban neighborhood and there are LOTS of outdoor cats in the area. I've noticed and chased away the same couple cats sitting outside the chicken coop totally freaking out my chickens.
Will the chickens get used to the cats and not be so freaked out? Should I worry that there's some way the cat can get to the chickens? I'm not sure how that would be.
How do I discourage the cats without trapping or harming them? I don't want angry neighbors since I'm not exactly zoned for chickens.
Thanks,
