Morning everybody, I've got a fox or yote problem on my place, I've lost four hens in the last week and all during the day when I'm gone at work. All my fowl are free range but go into a solid coop at night. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Set some snares in the tall grass[emoji38]
Put a trail cam out to see whats killing them.
They know it's easy food so they wont stop till ya get rid of em.
Traps should do it just keep the dogs tied up at night.
If its happening at night just set the traps right before dark and just shut em down during the day.
That small yote may be your problem but I wouldn't count out the possibility of an owl either.
I was thinking a hawk or owl myself. I bet if it was that Coyote he will be a gun shy the next few days after shooting at him.
