No real exciting news to report on the possum front. Last night it was about 9:30 p.m. when I discovered it. So this afternoon Matt counted the eggs (13) but left them there and we went back out at 9:00 tonight. Possum had already been there and consumed 3 eggs.
So tomorrow I’ll talk to my brother and see if he has a live trap we can use.
It’s a small young possum, and as far as I can tell it’s only interested in the eggs. I think if it was after chickens Miss Silkie would have gone missing already.
As to Pablo’s question, I assume it walks right in the door 🙂 We have a small door cut into the walk-in door so that the chickens can come and go at will.
To be continued…
Do something soon. The drama is killing me..
