CatfishKev Report post Posted February 2, 2019 2 hours ago, rancilio said: I strung electric wire to keep bears and javelina out... nothing else worked. Foxes, raccoons, and skunks still figure out ways to visit at night. Coyotes haven’t touched the electric wire as far as I have seen, but they seem to know it might hurt. And big cats haven’t shown an interest in the chickens at all... so far. 13629A49-CB2A-43A8-B9FF-A674BF8F7145.MP4 3626D748-AABF-4A50-92CB-BADAF0B95A26.MP4 62DD1B50-27D2-4B9E-A4F2-E5444CB849CE.MP4 That's a pretty big bear Matt! How often do they come around? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bears are here about two weeks a year from the end of August to mid September, only when the apples up the Canyon are ripe. Every year after their apple snack they break into my chicken coop and kill... until last year when I electrified my chicken area. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muleymania Report post Posted February 5, 2019 The bow sits by the back door for this very purpose. We had one walk brazenly past my wife just last week, like he owned the joint. Being up against a preserve, our 8' block & view fencing does nothing to stop them. Lookin on the bright side tho...it's a twoofer! I get to stop the threat & practice my skillz!
