Do Racoons kill chickens and ducks?

[4 Love of Baby Chickens]

I've thought about your question and the only answer that I can say is........................... YES.

Unfortanly I've lost countless of chickens to coons over the years. Nine or ten chickens last year in late June.

 

[Sitka]

Yes to the millionth degree.
Also, keep in mind that they are very strong, very smart, very devious, and very persistent.

does a bear poop in the woods?

The only redeeming quaility a coon has, he's fairly easy to trap once he starts on your birds.
Then dispatch him with a 22, (He'll tear YOU up if he can)
and he's pretty good eating.

I'd catch those ducks before Mr. Coon does.

Does a frog have a watertight bum?
Does a one-legged duck swim in a circle?
Does Dolly Parton sleep on her back?
Is the pope Catholic?
Do raccoons eat chickens and ducks?

Will a raccoon kill your ducks, geese, or chickens? YES!!! It'll eat them every chance it gets!!!

 

[jojo@rolling acres farm]

YES! And anything else they can spot with their beady little eyes and grab with their nervous little hands!

Yes,They will kill ALL your chickens and ducks if you don't kill them.I have killed 13 of them this summer alone.
