I know that word will stir a lot of you into a rage.
But this year I decided to try something.
Every morning I would take my dirty eggs and put them
on the snow bank for the ravens. My theory was if they
think this is home they will defend it. And so they did.
I witnessed them sending off eaggles several times beating
a hawk up and even chased a fox off that was about 10 ft from
the chicken coop. I know only give them eggs when I find
a hidden nest. Also if they were well fed on eggs maybe
they would not go after other smaller bird eggs as their
bellys were already full. So I have guard llama's, guard turkey tom,
and guard ravens.
