So happy for you!!!!! We are still on the hunt for ours....... Hoping your chickens stay safe...it's devestating to loose them.....especially in such a cruel way.

Keep setting that trap........most of the time you will catch several.

IF you don't mind me asking..........what did you do with the racoon you caught? Just know they are territorial and they WILL COME BACK. I personally, would have shot it. But, that's just me. We have had our chickens slaughtered.....killed for sport. Whereas I understand it's their way of life..........It's not their way of life just to kill for sport........therefore; anything I catch, will be D-E-A-D. Don't wanna make my problem somebody's elses!

GO CELEBRATE!
