Some very sad updates from my sunny coop.
Several predator attacks thinned my flock significantly, killing 6 of my babies, and another of my big girls in a 24 hour period.
Fortunately, I was able to resurrect an old, bigger coop, patch it up, and now everyone is on total lockdown.
It's not ideal, and no one is very happy with it, but there are foxes, hawks, bobcats, and weasels around, and I'm not sure of a fence that deters all of them.

So Nardole and his original 4 are in the sunny coop, since most of my new polish chicks were among the fallen, I didn't have the heart to leave poor Amy by herself with the big birds, so she is back with the rest of the littles.
Sarah Jane Smithhas gone broody, I gave her a few eggs (including 3 from River, my most recent big bird casualty) and also ordered some chicks to arrive on day 21 just in case she doesn't stick with it well.

Thanks, it's been a rough summer. I lost 2 of my big girls about a month ago, and that was very sad, but the massacre was just devastating.

I'm so sorry to hear about your losses! I pray nothing happens to anymore of your birds!
Have a super blessed day!
