Ours were several months old before the mongoose began to ignore them. From 22 chicks I have 12 hens left. Some of the youngsters were killed right in front of me and the mongoose was running from chicken to chicken ripping out their throats. By the time I could grab my gun five were dead or dying.

No affection for mongoose.

My recommendation is buy a trap and a pellet gun. Use them in that order.
Assume the best and ask questions.
