We keep a game camera on the tree next to the coop. It's pretty interesting to see what happens while we sleep. Bears, foxes, pine martens, stray dogs/cats, and even elk and deer have been captured inquiring about our chickens. We are still waiting to capture a photo of the mountain lion that leaves tracks just out of view of the camera. We think he is weary of the proximity to our house and our two Newfies that bark up a storm when they smell him. By far foxes have been the biggest issue though, they show up nightly. I posted about our fox battles in the below thread. The update is that the foxes have yet to penetrate the updated fortress, so confidence in cohabitation grows.I have to ask....That "other problem" looks like a fox with it's lovely winter white coat on. How did you handle it? Do you have an outside camera at all times or just to catch this culprit on film? jkDid he get any of your chickens? lol
