So, I'm investigating meat goats for my little farm and belong to several homesteading and meat goat forums, and the option of keeping donkeys as guard animals keeps popping up. They will apparently protect the goats from pretty much any predator from dog or coyote on down.
So, the idea of using one to also protect the chickens came to mind. I don't remember seeing any posts about that on this forum. Has anyone tried this? If so, what was your setup and how did it go?
Thanks in advance!
