Terminated With Extreme Predjudice!

The Average Lifespan Of A Predator Around Here Is About 15 Seconds. And Since I Beleieve In Fixing Problems I Prefer A Permanent Fix.... Therefore I Own No Traps But Instead Ammunition Reloaders.... Go Ahead And Shoot All You Want, I'll Make More

Just wondering what kind of pen your birds were in? I live in the boonies where predators are plentiful, and I've seen on here where coons are getting to birds, and making a meal out of them. I know coons are pretty tough and agile, but are the coons tearing through regular 1" chicken wire? I can't see them getting through 1/2" hardware cloth if it's secured properly.

The ones that got killed and eaten were my extra roos and they were in an old rabbit cage so the wire on the sides is 1 inch x 2 inch ( I think) ....my fault I guess. All my other pens have 1/2 on the bottom and 1/4 inch on the sides. I'll secure this cage this weekend.

Traps dug out from under the deck and ready to be baited tonight.
