I lost all but one hen to what I think was a bobcat. I had 3, then one morning had only two and one severely injured and a hole about 4 inches diameter pulled on the edge of a chain link fence. I repaired the fence (it was a strong booger - I'm assuming bobcat due to the size and no carcass anywhere)...and figured the injured hen wouldn't last long but seemed happy to be with her buddy in the coop. The next morning another hole stretched in the chain link and the healthy chicken gone. I brought the injured one inside and she has since recuperated miraculously! It's been 2 1/2 weeks and I would like to move her outside and get a friend or two but am worried about the bobcat returning. Any ideas???
