Right now…we have nine of them. One was rehomed to a local 4H club because the breeder assumed his gender wrong.
Haven’t lost one to predators yet, knock on wood.
I think the fact that I have three dogs patrolling the yard peeing all over things is keeping them all away.
The little one is a dachshund/pit mix and be does not take shit from the other two, each twice his size. He’ll wait for them to finish peeing, then pee on their pee while staring them in the eye.
Dogs work. I had a coop installed in a plot where there are no houses around, so predators are plentiful and leaving dogs is not an option, at least for me.
I’ve had problems with foxes.
If your hen/rabbit house isn’t hard for you to access, it has no chance to hold a fox or any potential predator out.
I’m amazed…last year we gotten ten baby chicks.
