My night time visitors

[Lazy Farmer]

What is a five day waiting period?

My ill attempt at humor of the "Brady Law".
Click on that photo, save as is, and you won't need to wait 5 days..

OMG!!! That totally speaks to predator proofing your flock!!!

I can't get it to say, save as is

Wow! Do you have chickens in there? I bet the poop pile on the morning following those night time visits is bigger than usual!

Our night time visitors consist primarily of mosquitoes and cane toads! My gals would poop their feathers!

Best I have

Wow, you've got some heavy hitters - looks like bobcat and coyote - too bar you can't send armed drones out to get them

 

[Folly's place]

Very impressive wildlife! There's nothing like a safe coop and run no matter where you live. At least not bears...

I agree. I don't think that it will be long until one of those night time visitors are going to figure out a way to get dinner. It doesn't look all that secure to me.

I get a lot of predator pics like that ( should save some ) The lesson to be learned here is it doesn't matter of you have Lions and Elephants come through ... as long as your coop and run are Lion and Elephant proof !

At the moment I have snares set for them. Snares are a bit more selective when set correctly and if a domestic dog is caught usually they just lay down and take a nap until released unlike a coyote which will work very hard at hanging itself in some manner. Bobcats typically just lay down also.

I'll get them. It's a matter of time and patience. They are accustomed to the human scent living and feeding in the subdivisions. This makes them
careless which will be their undoing.
