Think it’s a huge stray cat. He tried to eat my Serama bantams today. Luckily I was outside! He then went for another pen of Showgirls. Again was able to send him packing.

She’s devastated. They were her sweeties.

Yes whatever it was it removed the lid completely. My niece thinks maybe a house cat. I’m thinking rats. The shed has doors front and back that we usually lock. They aren’t anything special just wood. I didn’t see any damage or anything like tracks. No other sign of the attack.

My niece and I have chick brooders set up in a large shed. I have a large metal livestock water trough. She has a huge dog crate (Great Dane sized) with one huge plastic tub with older Showgirls. She also had 10 Showgirls and Silkies around three weeks old. They were inside a large plastic tub...

Any guesses on which are roos? What do you call the color on Hector the last chick? Blue spangled?

Blue with Truffles the Serama bantam who is the same age. The oldest breed with the smallest!

Snowball 8 weeks old

My chicks are doing great now that they are in a larger coop. No more bloody fights. You are right I LOVE them! So smart! Know their names and come when called.

Thanks
