Mongoose has been lurking around our area for months now!
We had 4 chicks and he ate 2 of them and the other 2 escaped.
Since then we wired the cages and kept chicks inside our home.
While we let our adolescent chickens free range, he used to lurk around but we drived him away.
Now our 5 hens are nearly all laying with 4 chicks.
We let them free range in a wired area but somehow a huge mongoose got in!!
We saw him in time and he went away.
Was he here for the eggs or did he want to harm our flock?!
Luckily no one was hurt but do we have to be alert for 3-4 hours outside while we let them free range?
