We have 5 DC, They surrounded a rabbit under the truck the other day. When the rabbit made a break for it they were on it like stink on poo

Wow! That's pretty neat! Hmmm,...a flock of 40 might be a good idea for larger predators. Very interesting!

I have lost a total of seven birds and it was in a very short period of time. The hawk is very brazen and doesn't seem to fear humans. I am going to try the scare crow now that the hawk has come back and tried to get a free lunch. I'll also try hanging CDs and hope its a cheap fix. The neighbors don't like me because I used a Super Soaker water gun to scare off their cats and my response was to put my dirty coop litter and compost on that side of the property. So I have to be cautious about what measures I take to rid my yard of pests. I also don't want to look like Honey BooBooville. Lol

I have an extension cord running to the coop for the heat lamp for the really cold nights. Now that spring is approaching and the lamp isn't going to be needed I will try the radio too. I couldn't get video even if I tried. I am too busy pulling on my boots and running around the yard yelling. If someone ever saw me out there in my bathrobe and Sorel Caribou boots I would be locked up.

Like your tactics! I'm sure your neighbor will agree a wet cat is better than a dead one! Think I'll get a water gun too when temps get warmer. My neighbour just got a new kitty, but hasn't been a problem yet. Between that one & the ferals, they've been keeping the rodent population in check all winter. No harm, no fowl! Lol! We'll see once it's time to free range.
