Sorry for the losses, that's never a good thing. If you are using chicken wire for your enclosure, replace it with welded wire (it's a lot stronger).

Wishing you all the best, thanks for joining us!

Please check out the predator forums for information on safeguarding your flock.Raccoons are probably the worst predator - even if they don't kill chickens, they maim them so badly they die anyway.
