all killed in pen: first suspect raccoon, very common,
very strong, able to open most pens, live/travel near
waterways only eat crop of bird ,maybe heads, will
kill all birds in pen, can climb any fence but
electrified. second suspect mink or weasel, both can
get through a very small hole (2inch)they are very
flexible, the mink being slightly larger.they will dig
under a fence look for that.again will kill all birds
in pen with no apparent reason. will eat only crop of
one bird. I only had a weasel once and trapped it with
havaheart trap with a fresh egg as bait, works for
coon also. in any event if you about electrifying
things you still might have to trap if you see signs
of predators because they be very determined.
