I had a skunk dig under our fence and get into the run. After filling the holes with rocks, and having them redug, I decided to take affirmative action. I sat on top of the coop one moon lit night and after about an hour or so, sure enough that little bugger came right out of the neighbors field heading straight for the coop. Ishot it with a shotgun, but this seemed to make it VERY angry and it sprayed two or three times before dying. MAN was that potent stuff. I had to dig a hole and bury the critter, being careful not to touch it with anything except the post hole diggers. AndI STILL had to get rid of the skunk smell that was on my clothes and in my hair. At least the flock is safe once again.
