Oh, no! I’ve had that problem in the past with raccoons. My last two laying hens, ‘Cagney & Lacey’ were the last two to go. *SNIF*
I don’t have hens right now - waiting for Beau to build the new pole barn as I’m taking over a corner of it for laying and roasting hen production.
Yeah raccoons are something awful. We’ve lost birds to them as well.
That’s what we thought initially, actually, but given the damage to the shed door, cinderblocks moved, and the big wide path of flattened ferns we think it must’ve been something bigger.
