Little tip to help keep predators away:) !!!

I did that in my coop back in Oregon..never had a predator problem either. I had no light but I had the radio going...I also changed the channel periodically.

 

I've had a radio for few years playing by my chicken coops...it does work.

 

It usde to work for me until the day a fox came and killed four of my hens................................
He had no fear once he got the first taste
Had the nerve to come back when I was sitting there

 

If you live in the country where wildlife is not taken over by human population this would work,i did this with a guinea nesting in the field, put a kennel around her and a radio at night she hatched her keets out ,no problems.

We had a bobcat taking ducks in the same area at the same time, the dogs have taken care of it so no more cat problems .

But if the critters are living among humans, then they are use to all kinds of noise so don't think it's gonna be as effective.

 

My dad tried that (and everything else) to try to control a pack of raccoons that kept clearing out the sweet corn in his garden. It took only about a week for them to get used to the radio.

It couldn't hurt, but your best defense has still go to be a stoutly built, secure coop.
