A shovel will bring down a coyote....Stepping out of Brahmalot mode for a minute -
The plan is to keep everyone penned for a few days. We have 4 coops with covered runs. Our 60-ish chickens will be kind of crowded and we will have to keep the roos in separate cages so they don't fight, but it's do-able. That gives me and my shotgun a chance to kill the beast or maybe he will just move on when there's no easy food. The game camera is going to be out tonight aimed at his probable path, which is down the driveway. When he took Danny earlier, he ran straight up the driveway and across our dirt road into the woods on the other side of the street (dropping Danny in the street). Later in the day, he was in a buffer area of about 12 feet between the back yard (where the chickens free-range) and the boundary fence that goes around the entire 3 acres that we have. If I catch him in the main yard again, my first plan is to run close the gate at the street, which hopefully will slow him down enough for me to get a shot or two. If he's coming out during the day because he's rabid, then it's probably a good thing I didn't catch up with him this afternoon armed with nothing but my shovel, which was the nearest thing I had at the time! Anyway, be patient, Brahmalot stories are going to be on hold for a little bit. Wish me luck!
