Needless to say, traps have been set around the coop just in case there are more. So odd, in some ways. My friends have had chickens and ducks for at least 5 years and have NEVER lost any, not from illness or predation from any animal; but, in one night, lose almost every single one....especially all the 4 adult ducks, which were their children's pets.

The ducks were pets of their children and had lived safely in the coop & enclosed covered large yard, for at least 4 years! > > > > > Gayle MacLean > > Dartmouth >
