Last Saturday, New Years Eve, a dog broke into my chicken coop and killed 13 purebred hens. I live at the end of Palani St in Hawaiian Beaches. Am wondering if anyone saw a loose dog day that day and can describe it.
Most of my coop is field fencing but there was on 2' section of chicken wire that he was able to find and break through. The carnage was extensive and spread through out the yard as the hens tried to escape.
The hole was fixed yesterday, and am ready to rebuild my flock. If anyone has leads to pullets (young hens) for sale, please let me know.
Edit OK Am more devastated than I thought. Need your kind words of support.
