Writer of Words...not just weasel kissers...raccoon kissers, possum kissers, skunk kissers, mountain lion kissers etc etc

tiffanyh...I agree which is also why I never use the phrase "if you have nothing nice to say, then say nothing" because if I have something to say, it is not always nice. I do say what it is on my mind.

Ok this is my 2 cents worth on the matter. I have never commented in the predator section but being a member of many different types of forums over the years. I beleive that you are never going to get a place were everyone plays nice so if you post something about killing predators or whatever the subject may be you are bound to get some that agree with you, some that loudly don't and some that just read it and move on with no comment. I don't think you can tell people not to comment if they don't agree. You just have to learn to take the good with the bad and ignore the ones that loudly try to have a go at you and move on.

You build you coop as predator proof as possible but nothing, repeat NOTHING is infallable.

There is no statistical proof that if one predator is killed another will replace it. I can tell you this. I had three foxes in my yard...yesterday about 1 pm, middle of the day, one of the younger stupid ones was busy scratching away trying to dig under my run. Granted I have chain link, chicken wire from 3 feet high down and under the chain link and out about 18", stapled down and covered with 5" of soil but his happy fox butt was trying to get in. I threw a rock at him and he kept digging. I went back in the house, came out and shot his happy digging butt. I dug the hole, put him in it and slept fine last night...so did all 30 of my chickens! And guess what else? The other two DID NOT come into the yard this morning like they do every morning.

This is not Live with Emerill. How the blue blazes do you make your chickens NOT look like, smell like or appeal like food to a predator?

Where do you live that no one hunts? I want to be able to direct the weasel kissers there.

That statement makes no sense. If you are not overrun but you see 'enough' of them at night....how can you not be overrun. If you see enough of them then guess what? You are overrun. These are nocturnal and predominately solitary animals...why are you seeing 'enough' of them? Think about it....I am sure it will come to you.

He was lucky. Not everyone has a good dogs or multiple dogs, nor should they have to. If it is your property, you have the right to exist on it in any fashion you wish. With or without predators. I choose to have chickens and ducks, I chose to spent nearly $2,000.00 building a secure chicken coop, run and now duck house. But that does not mean I must tolerate something trying to get in to eat them. If it tries it dies. I do not negotiate with terrorists, idiots or predators. Period.

Personally, I have a feeling you are in for a harsh wake up call. I hope you do not walk out to your yard one day to find a massacre of your chickens...if you do, then I believe your opinions will change. Will you blame yourself for not making a sturdy enough coop? Or maybe not building them a concrete complex with sod, alarms and guard dogs? Get real which is what my post is all about... reality check.
