In the Brooder
We knew Jessie (the squirrel) was crazy. Jessie will go anywhere and actually chewed a big hole through a GAMMA LID. So we got better lids and made sure everything was in buckets or sturdy containers. Jessie responded by taking the goodies directly from the chicken feeders in the run. (I suspect, but don't know, that s/he may also be pilfering the occasional egg.)
My husband is very much of the opinion that the best squirrel is a dead one. I actually like watching squirrels and tend toward a live-and-let-live view. I just don't want them in my stuff.
Our chickens (7 hens and a rooster) free range in and out of the run all day. Is there a good way to either keep out or repel the squirrel without locking out the chickens? They lay throughout the day, so I'd like to keep giving them that option.
