RoosterBoy Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 [/img]Here the Raccoon that killed my pigeons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8w1Hy58uaME Raccoons killed all most all my Pigeons, I lost some very close friends, and I have to start from scratch !! Please don't make my mistake. I left the fly pen opened. The raccon killed all the pigeons except 6 which were able to fly out in the dark. The Raccon left the dead pigeons .I was told to wait up the next nite. The raccoon was sure to return about 1-2 hours after sunset. I had to put him in a trap and move him about 20 miles away before I released him. I also got bit in the finger. I had to get 5 set of rabies shots. What a horrible summer . Please be sure you close up your pigeon coup at nite if you fly your pigeons.I had no idea we had raccoons in my town. I felt so bad after finding all my favorite birds dead on the floor. I was very close to them, I hand fed them , if I walked outside they would fly and land on my should or head when ever I walk in my back yard. I hope this never happens to anyone Takecare Roosterboy
Guest shadow Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 racoons can find their way back you should have diposed of it sorry for your loss
gangster Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 YES YOU SHOULD HAVE SORTED IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!
RoosterBoy Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Posted October 10, 2007 Thanks Shadow, I released him about 20 miles away, if he is to return he better be able to swim about a mile , I released him on the other side of the Connecticut River. I still need to be sure that the rest of his family don't come back. I was told once a Raccoon finds livestock nothing can stop him from comming back. You must catch him and take him away. They always return the next nite, about 1-2 hours after sunset to eat the pigeons they killed the day before. Thats the only time you can be sure to catch him. Takecare Roosterboy

Takecare Roosterboy That means you have let him go to kill someone elses pigeons now he has a taiste for pigeon, like Ganster I would have eliminated the threat :-/

Hope you get back on track soon.

Roland Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 Just wire the place and plug into the electric mains! Or buy a electric Fence, no raccoons. My mate in Canada has same trouble with Raccoons and weasels.... I wouldn't! But Raccoons are crafty and vicous, and do / will return every night. Good luck.
