loss to a ferret ( I stand corrected a Mink!)

On second thought maybe I should have made my chickies a fur rug out of it!

They're brazen, aren't they? I live about a mile from a now-defunct mink farm - some of them got loose over the years and they live in the stream that's a bit further away. I haven't seen any near our house or had any problems with them, but a few friends have. A friend of mine woke up to find a mink sitting in their run - he'd eaten so many chicken heads the night before that he was too fat to get out the hole he'd come in! He was just sitting there waiting for someone to let him out, while the chickens that were left were huddled in the corner freaking out. They shot it through the chain link of the run and moved their chickens to a more secure run/coop a few days later.
