oooh sigh. That's a good one.

My hubby always says that to me, he says:
"I hate to see you leave, but I LOVE to watch you walk away!"

Poor Ralph must have lost another chicken last night! Oh well, got to tell the kids no using our back door before dark for at least a month now."

I used to have my son pee on the back property boundry where it abutts the woods. Now I just bring my dogs to do their thing along the property line. I lost several chickens, bantams and Guineas to fox. Once I started having the son and dogs mark the line, they have stayed away. We also have a lot of coyotes. They used to come right into the horse pasture, behind the house. When my Mal grump had her pups and i kept 4, they decided they would rather stay outside in their pen than be inside the house. The pen goes around the goat/chicken barn which is also a kennel. When the coyotes howl, the pups answer. Since they have a huge howl, the coyotes shut right up and move on.

Well I'm glad you got entertained.

But I was serious and I mark on a reqular basis and I'd say that stump near the coop is pretty well saturated. I wasn't talking about just peeing on the ground. I was talking about spraying just like my cats do. I do take all the other precautions for predators. I also put pictures of the mother in law next to our posted signs. I ain't into hunting. I figure hunters vomit can't hurt to keep predators away either. She's so ugly when she was a kid she had to trick or treat by phone.

Seriously though, if you have a male dog I would walk him around the place regularly and have him mark where you want him to cause that's what hes' doing when he cocks his leg.
As for my neighbor she's nice enough and sometimes too nice. I caught her giving bread to my chickens. She did seem to get mad today when I asked her to return the round plastic swimming pool I use for a brooder that blew in her yard. It's got a hole so it's not like it was good for much else. Anyhow if I see her marking her yard I'll have a stroke. Sides I only do it at night. If I run into any critters I'll probably do more than pee.

I really was trying to do some research to see if anyone else has tried this method of deterent. So far I haven't seen any signs of predators and I'll keep "marking" my yard just the same.
Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all, both markers and non-markers alike! Markers mind your aim, avoid the fence charger, and ingnore the astonished neighbors.

Non-markers, mind your guns, traps, and fence chargers.

And to all a good night!

Agreed. If we had a privacy fence I would PERMANENTLY ban DH from peeing in the floor, I mean toilet.
He swears he doesn't do it, but know I'm not the one peeing in the floor!

Our next house is going to be so far out in the sticks that all of us can pee whenever.

ha ha ha!!! on the floor! oooooooh how true, how true.
