    Black Panther

    Sorry folks ,i just don't believe much of what the DEC says, concerning Black Cougars , etc, let alone Woodmart...! We've heard the same nonsense about coyotes, and this and that.If folk's going back generations have seen the big cats themselves,where they are not suppose to exist, why do you...

    Going to the processors today YEAH!!!!!!!

    Well ya know, i feel it takes time for some folk to learn, feel and get through the process of butchering a chicken.This process comes more naturally for some than others, but no one should be.....ahhhhh..well...you know... If we stick to it, we will learn and get there, if we so desire.Many of...

    PO and chicks

    The USPS is a dying diansour.Two weeks ago i sent my ailing father a 2 lb. jar of my local honey, it never made it.I didn't insure , do registered,or delivery confirmation, spending the extra money. Big mistake, and not the first time.It really ticked me off that my honey didn't get to dad, and...

    Buying a Scale

    A google search should come up with a number of scales for sale.Where i live, scales have to be certified by the county.Of course if your doing things on the sly, that doesn't matter, but you want a scale that is accurate to be honest with your clients.Serach google, you should be able to find...

    How to encourage crows???

    I set up a feeding platform years ago for the crows.I feed them food scrapes in a queit part of my yard.Crows are leary of humans( probabley because they are often being shot at) and it may take a long time to gain some trust.The clan of crows around my land do a great job of chasing of the red...

    Fairly certain a neighbour's cat just killed one cock and three hens.

    I happy as well your not my neighbor.Just for the record i have a pet cat and have always had pet cats.It matters not, if its one hen/roo or four...some cats kill full grown large hens/roos.I kill cats that kill my laying hens.You do as you like, but other hen owners would likely not want you...

    Fairly certain a neighbour's cat just killed one cock and three hens.

    First i'd say many here believe a cat will not kill a full grown chicken,i know better.( Two Full grown NH Reds killed)Sorry for your loss.i wouldn't live trap and relocate, i'd live trap and dispose.It's no right to pass your problem on to another.

    ok hawk flies on my poarch now what

    I haven't had to do anything "final" with a persistent hawk . If i had to, well..eggs are my main source of protein, and i can't let that be intrupted.I agree with Ole' Rooster, if you have to do it, keep it to yourself.The Feds provide heavy fines and maybe jail time as well for killing a...

    feral tom cat

    Thats the right word for that Tom cat, predator.Plenty around here don't believe cats will kill a full size chicken.I had a cat kill two full grown... big... NH Reds two yrs ago.I'd do the same as you if i saw a cat prowling around my birds...!

    50 chicks gone...

    Wow, what a drag...so sorry for your loss.! I'd set up a gamecam to see whats coming around, and act on that, when you see who the culprit is. Don't give up, and keep things locked up.Seems everything wants to eat our chickens.Sorry again for your loss...

    ok hawk flies on my poarch now what

    Since hawks are protected by the Feds,and it could mean big trouble if you got caught harming them, i wouldn't take the chance. What has worked for me is forming an alliance with the local crows.I feed them table scraps, fish carcuses, whatever.They never seem to be far away, and respond almost...

    Dog has jumped my fence and killed chickens on 2 occasions

    Sorry for your loss...An animal like the dingo who took your hens will be back.Even though you haven't seen it for awhile, doesn't mean it's still not around.One thing you need to consider is an animal like that could attack your children as well..! If you don't own guns , nor want to kill the...

    Coyote

    IMO. it doesn't matter one bit if its an eastern or western coyote. Either one is a problem if you have chickens, rabbits, small dogs , cats or young children.Shoot the one you caught and yes most likely you have more around.If you don't shoot and kill they will keep coming back and get more...
