Alright, you all have me convinced. I have wanted to start with a few
chickens here on the farm but how do free range birds hold up with the
red-tailed hawks, raccoons, possums, owls and my major worry, my barn cat,
who the other morning brought me a adult rabbit as big as he is. (looked
like a mini-lion dragging the rabbit between his legs)? Then there are the
coyotes and wild dog pack from people in the city who dump their unwanted
litters out here in the country. I figure I would have to cover any
chicken pen just to assure there would be chickens left after the first
month.
What is your experience? Would I just be feeding the wildlife? Mike Miller
