I was just curious on what is the most common cause of chickens getting killed. Not so much which predator caused the death but how the predator got them.
Example:
Free Range death
Chicken wire did not stop predator
Dug into coop
Decapition through welded wire
left coop open overnight
Unsecure coop or run, explain
Etc...
I'll keep a running tally. Thanks for you input, hopefull we can all learn from it.
Latest update..
4 Free ranging deaths
2 Chicken wire did not stop predator
2 predator reaching through wire
1 Unsecured coop
1 Left the coop open
1 electric fence malfucntion.
1 Dug under fence
