The rain continues to create a glorious mud pit in our pig pen and we are down to 15 small chickens and 6 big ones. The two adult ducks provide care and comfort for the 6 ducklings, down from 8. I’m wondering if the ornery male has chased off the two that may have been male. He is a male in charge of his business. Unfortunately, I know either Merry or Ranger are the culprits of 3 fowl deaths but the others simply vanished. I know that sounds like the work of a fox but I can’t figure out when he would have gotten to them. The poultry mortality rate is sky rocket but the ones that are able to survive live one happy life.
