Despite working extra hard to secure the coops, the predators were one step ahead. Most just disappeared, which is a bit easier to accept, but then in the fall of 2019, I got hit by a fisher cat! It killed all 12 birds in the coop. I had slide though a one inch space left for ventilation, and unable to remove the birds just killed them where they slept. I&#8217;ve taken the winter off, reset the coops, and finally have ordered a new flock for 2020.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> BUFF BRAHMA Female 2<br \/>BLACK SEX LINK Female 2<br \/>LAKENVELDER Female 2<br \/>OLIVE EGGER Female 2<br \/>PRAIRIE BLUEBELL EGGER Female 2<br \/>SALMON FAVEROLLE Female 2<br \/>SPITZHAUBEN Female 2 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> 2019 saw the passing of my monarch Black Star Martha at 9-1\/2 years old. A month shy of 10! ( Natural causes) .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I really loved Spot, she was a fun girl, so I ordered more spotted ones. I&#8217;ve had great results in the old flock with Blue Seal feeds, and will continue to use them. I will also continue trying to be as organic as possible. I think taking the winter off was smart, maybe the predators will move on and find they do know how to hunt. Come early spring I will really concentrate on getting it all in order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheers to 2020! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2019 was a tough year.
