Yes, I had to quit Free Ranging because I was loosing 2 - 3 birds a DAY!

My dad said he saw a coyote carry'ing a rabbit in it's mouth not too far away from the house, that's what I figure is getting them.

Sorry to hear that. Do they seem to be safe in their coop and run? What breeds do u have in your flock?

They do not have a run, the horses tore it down about a year ago. Their pens are secure now ... I think. I have a wide assorment of chickens, I couldn't name them all out. I have both Bantams and Standards it that helps.

Well at least they're safe now. If your situation gets better maybe I can see about getting you some eggs from my girls in the spring.

That would be awesome!

I'll have to work on my mom about that though ...
