Our favorite Wyandotte met the same fate. Our Corgi now stands guard at the chicken coop at night (all his idea, too). He and the neighbor's Rottweiler treed a coon last week. Needless to say, we won't be having troubles again for a while. So sorry about the raccoon raid. Our favorite Wyandotte met the same fate.

You go get those mean racoons! We don't get racoons in UK. Our main chicken killers are foxes, and they are just as determined. Though not anything like as dexterous. I was so shocked to read how they pulled her through that little slit in the wood. Poor, poor hen. There's just no need for such a brutal end to any living creature's life. May your eyes be sharp and your shot be true! X Poor little Banty. You go get those mean racoons! We don’t get racoons in UK. Our main chicken killers are foxes, and they are just as determined.

Wonder how we'd feel if we were raising raccoons? At least you know what took her - I've found my girls dead and have had no idea what to be mad at! So, so sorry for the loss.
