Protecting my flocks?

[flockandgarden]

Is there an animal I can use to help guard my flocks. I can not add anymore dogs to the property. Suggestions??????????

I've read of people using mini donkeys, goats and sheep as livestock guardians. In my opinion though, the only fool proof way to protect them is an enclosed run. After all, these are living beings and will do as they choose. If you free range, loss is something that must be expected at some point or another. Good luck.

Geese can be great "Watch dogs" making lots of noise if there is an intruder and even driving off some smaller predators...however, as howfunkyisyourchicken stated, a secure run is your best bet.
