All chickens are safe (haven't lost one yet) but we're seeing more tracks. I took this pic today on the driveway. ...Yes, we still have snow. :(
1. Any guesses to the animal?
2. If it's a chicken predator, any suggestions to make him move away?
2b. If it's just a large squirrel, please laugh along with me. (The dogs keep most of the squirrels up in the trees, so we don't get many clear tracks.)


 
The pattern reminds me of a rabbit, all grouped together like thatm but usually the back feet imprints are longer. Maybe someone else will know, but rabbit and cat are my two guesses.
 
OK I guess I must build a better garden fence this year! I normally only see running rabbit tracks (due to the dogs), & the squirrel tracks are usually smaller. Thanks for the help ...& the chuckle.
