Possum stalking chickens!

[shannon84]

I'm going to set up a trap tomorrow for him. My dog ran him off tonight. I pray he won't return

Get a Have-a-heart trap to catch him and relocate. (If you are brave, they're not too hard to catch by hand. Just have something on so they can't bite you, and pick them up by the scruff of their neck.) They're not a major predator and often is after eggs, though will bite a chicken. I have had them get into one of my pens before, but if you have a secure coop, you shouldn't have to worry much.

I wish I was brave enough to grab him like that lol im scared of those things

Does it look pretty secure you guys?

OP said possum, not coon.

@NatJ does it look secure?
