A prolific former poster and friend who had a great garden thread taught me last month.
Lost a chicken. We set up live traps. Hot dogs for bait. 2 hours later, possum.
Next morning coon.
Later that day, 5 more coons.
He kills them, then hangs them in the coop.
Time... then maggots. Maggots drop to ground, chickens get protein.
Not joking.
Circle of life.
