Yes he offered some (possibly) fertile eggs of his barnyard mixes. No thanks. I'd rather he put the money into fortifying his fence. Not enough money out there to replace Cru. I'll hit him up next spring when I go get more Houdan eggs. I love this breed and want a large flock of them.I'm so very sorry for your losses! Motivated dogs can kill so many in such a short time, it's awful.
Your neighbor is liable for the cost of your birds, and go big! This should have already been offered by the dog owner, and I'd report the incident to Animal Control or whoever should be involved in your county, and if the neighbor isn't doing the right thing already, have this handled by AC or whoever.
It doesn't make up for the loss of those particular birds, but still should be paid.
And have that electric fence on all the time! It's more likely to cause injuries if it's sometime safe and sometimes not.
