[Savanna’s chickens]

So this isn’t exactly a question but I just want to say what happened, rue ( my current profile picture) and all her flock have been killed by a mountain lion and it was a traumatizing experience because there were some legs we found and one of them were tied and weirdly I was so attached to her it was stupid we already shot this mountain to scare it and actually hit it once and it came back... BUT there is ONE survivor and well it’s either a black sex link, jersey giant or MAYBE black australorp I’ll get pictures and I need help identifying and maybe names? I’m trying not to get attached but how could I not?!

Well that sounds horrible. Your surviving chick will need some company. Hopefully you plan to get a few more birds?

Sounds also like you need a more sturdy coop and run. With such a scary predator like a cougar I would suggest running multiple strands of electric fencing around your coop and run to keep your birds safe. Sorry.
