My poor chickens were terrorized by hawks yesterday... one of my bantam hens disappeared... the other one has no tail feathers... I so hate to kill them. I'm leaving my chickens up in the coop for a few days to see if they'll go back to their regular territory...
I also saw a Great Horned Owl in my yard Friday evening. Now the owls don't bother my chickens because I put them up at night.
I let one of the local hunters run their coon dogs and they got four the first night... all just 500 yards from my chicken pen.
I'm surprise my chickens made it with so many predator around. One thing for sure, if the economy gets any worst... I won't go hungry!!! Squirrel stew anyone? HEHEHEHE
Those chickens have certainly added excitement to your life, haven't they? :)
