worst predators

Seriously, do two lines of defense. First a good perimeter for backyard or pen. Tunnel proof and electrified. Secondly a good sound coop, at least around 18" off of the ground to discourage rodents taking up residence underneath. Properly constructed with no openings above 1/2" diameter. Plenty of ventilation, maybe 2 sq ft permanent, year-round, high up ventilation, plus two windows that can be opened or closed. Close up at dusk. That way you have 2 lines of defense and if the pen/fence fails, the coop will stop a predator.

I have read countless posts on BYC that describe a slaughters of flocks because the one and only line of defense was breached. Works for me, with no losses to date.
