The victims… Victim # 1… Victim #2 I’ll get ’em,there’s two of ’em and they pulled wire apart to get in the coop-smart little fuckers-we’re down to 4 hens now. We were getting a few $$ a week from selling eggs-not gonna happen with 28 eggs a week,plus the occasional extra egg one of them lays. Wonder what raccoon pelts are going for?

Update#1- One down,one to go-they climbed into attic/loft part of garage-so I set up a stepladder under the part with no plywood floor-shot one,pellet hit bone,as he climbed right down,but I was outside before second one could climb down-shot him right between the eyes from about 6 feet,he made it to the road,died on the edge of the road.
