We took the old door and walls down but left boards for roosting. The chickens loved it and are tucked in for the night.

Good afternoon everyone.
I have some sad news to report today. Last night I lost little Athena to a monster Raccoon. It was after midnight and the chickens out of the blue started screaming their heads off. By the time I got my shoes on and out the back door I spotted it packing Athena's body towards the creek bank. Thankfully my dogs were right behind me and they tree'd the evil beast in the mimosa tree. He is no more and will never have another chicken dinner. To make it worse I woke up this morning to also find that overnight for no reason I can find the smallest of Chiquita's leghorn babies passed as well. I am at a complete loss with that one. I have to think there was something wrong with it because it was noticeably smaller then the others and the only one who had yet to manage to fly out or in the tote on it's own. I buried Athena and the leghorn together beside Daisy. The evil raccoon did not deserve to be buried, he is in a garbage bag to be picked up Monday morning. Poor Ducky is beside herself. Athena was her partner in crime and she has looked for her all day. In a day or two she will be alright. Perdita and Grackle have been trying to hang out with her and she will for a time. Then she splits off and goes back to searching for Athena.

glad you were able to get the coon. We lost a chick in the batch of Cheetah and those ladies at around the 2 week mark. Also noticeably smaller than even Cheetah, who had been about the same size as it when they arrived.
For Ducky, Perdita, and Grackle too

I beg your pardon young lady! My brahmas are not dark. Matter of fact I have no Brahmas! (I wear boxers)
