Ground hogs

[enrgizerbunny]

Ground hogs aren't a threat to your chickens (just your feed budget), but they leave a hole that a fox can fit through. I don't have a predator proof run, and the ground hog moves things that a fox wouldn't and leaves a hole that a fox can fit through. I've caught two so far. Pictures of the first one.

Have you considered a no dig apron?

Maybe it’s now finally time for a skirt of hardware cloth all around the pen to prevent digging. Super cute groundhogs!
