The Moonshiner's Leghorns

Possum aren't a serious risk, at most they'll grab some eggs and go.

A risk to my birds is a risk all the same.
Possums will kill birds, especially juveniles. And eggs are potential chicks.
They can stay in the woods and hunt there and all is well.

You let mama go too, right?

Well yes. They were still nursing so...

Possums are the only American marsupial we have so they deserve to live and be relocated. Just my thought.

Okay, just making sure

The northern Oppossums eat chickens, I reckon they appreciate the extra protein. They aren't the brightest though, so even a simple steel legged coop that's two and a half feet off the ground is usually enough to deter them. My dogs won't let any of em' get to the animals here, so I'm good from that perspective.

Does anyone have any good recommendations on wild game or security cameras? I’m moving all my chickens out to the country tomorrow and would really appreciate helpful advice.

I'm no help.
I have a game camera but I've had it for years so with how fast technology moves I'm sure it's a dinosaur at this time.

That’s okay. Thank you for responding.

Moultrie. You can spend a little or a lot. It just depends on your needs and how fancy you want to get.
