So... chicken population has been affected badly. Had 30 chickens and now down to 14. We noticed a chicken gone and then another and then a massacre one evening with a number of chickens killed and left dead. The chickens are now gated in the evenings. I have the culprit on video - a younger coyote but clearly a coyote. Is there a good way to trap a coyote that has chicken on the brain? I considered a live trap at the entrance to the run. I also have some rubber jawed leg hold traps. Best lure or set up's? Never trapped and would appreciate any suggestions or push in the right direction.
I have tried to call it in but never see during the day.
Thanks.
