Our first death by snake

[MaryJanet]

sorry you lost your favourite pet chicken.

Very sorry for the loss of your feathered baby. We raise all ours as family pets too, besides the wee little ones I have lost haven't had a predator loss yet. Lots of hugs.

Maybe the snake could have come in your coop pop door. I have only once had a rat snake wrapped around a milk crate that I was using as a nest box in a coop. I did get it out and it slithered off. I had a couple of coach-whips get electrocuted by the electric wire around my coops and pens. They got on the electrocuted by wire that goes around my coops and pens and because of their size compared to like a coyote they were electrocuted. When I have accidentally touched the wire, it has made my heart skip a few beats. I hope you figure out where it got in. Hopefully I don't get another snake in my coops.
