Here are some pix.

Mr Blue Barred Rock......

The porcelain sale has fallen through (at least temporarily). So aside from Cetawin's pair....I have 4 additional pairs available. Here are pics of some of the girls.

Some of the silver laced large fowl and bantams mixed together (ignore the mille boy, he is not for sale)

I do have a dark mille fleur cochin project cockeral for sale

He is a bit of a butthead, but fine with people so far. Really bossy with the other birds. Very active with the ladies (sigh).

LOL! Yeah I saw your GINORMOUS basket last night. What the heck do you do with all of them????

Oh and no losses this morning either. Although I did have a moment of panic when i realized the boy did not close the opening to the run. But everyone was there for roll call this morning and the traps untouched. I'm not sure I'm understanding........have they figured out the trap? Do they know we're killing them off? This is SO frustrating!!!

I want to believe it was only two raccoons and a possum, but I'm just not buying it.

We used to tell people to sprinkle flour around......then the next morning, check for pawprints in it

I do a lot of baking, I feed them back to the birds by the several dozen, give them away and etc.

Yes, the coons have figured out what is going on...they are probably looking for another way in and avoiding that area. The flour is a great idea if you know what their tracks look like. Try moving the traps like out in the aisle. Spread flour all around those feed bins and see if anything is coming in there.
