Lost one beautiful duck to the snake last night - 16 Jan. We tried the old chicken coop, silly thing to do. I thought they’d be too big for the snake but I was wrong. All 4 ducklings and the 5 chickens were in there together. He just crushed one duckling and left her. So sad. Ducks are back in the old duck house tonight and chickens are in Blair’s chicken tractor. Aiden who has been working on the shed, said that he would snake proof the big cage tomorrow.
