I have had chickens for many years in in all the time I have only lost 4 to predators. From what I see some have lost twice that in one day. I consider myself lucky. I tried to give my girls a good life and they graced me with some wonderful great tasting eggs
I just believe we have a new predator in my area, he got all the three of my last hens this past week.
I am a believer in free range, I have allowed my property to get overrun in the back so my girls were hidden and it pretty much worked.
I do not believe in making it like a prison so they are stuck in a run that did not allow for running and playing. My girls used to follow me all over the backyard watching me plant things and just have fun.
I am very sad that I could not protect them form this new monster that was killing them off Life goes on and the predators have to eat too.
So I will say goodbye and thank you all for your comments, suggestions and answers to any of my questions. I am done, I had fun with my girls but it is time for me to just keep this a memory
Goodbye and good luck to you all
