My neighbors are working on their similar mecha-poultryfication.
I worry for the chickens because it backs up against a wildlife area with foxes, cats, red tails, norwegian tree rats, kestrals, squivverls, eagles, coyotes, raccoons (one of them growled at me while sitting in my garage last night … little fucker).
But even though they send me hate pics I wish their thing well. Some great advice an old timer gave me once was, “Make your home grow food.”
Lots of definite predator concerns when you have chickens. Though a full grow hen has zero to worry about from domestic cats.
The only predator we had problems with were hawks. They were taking 1-3 a year. We got geese. They instantly fixed that problem. Hawks hate geese and won’t go anywhere near them. Free grass mowing, guard dogs, giant eggs. Geese are the best investment.
