What are the natural enemies of chickens?

Chicken is one of the most important poultry in China, and almost every family has breeding, especially free-range chickens, which are very popular in the market, but when raising chickens, we must pay attention to their natural enemies. What are the natural enemies of that chicken?

First, what are the natural enemies of chickens?

The natural enemies of chickens are weasels, cats, eagles, foxes, snakes, wild dogs, mice and so on. Generally carnivorous and omnivorous animals will eat chicken, so you can raise a few local dogs or geese to prevent these natural predators.

Second, how to prevent weasels from raising chickens?

1. Raising geese

Some people may be deceived by the word "raising geese". What does it have to do with raising geese? Yes, if we keep a few geese in the chicken flock, it is very helpful to prevent the weasel, because the goose will scream as soon as it sees the weasel, and not only will it bark, but he will also call together to drive the weasel away, so it is very useful to keep a few geese in the chicken flock.

2. Raising local dogs

Some people say that the country dog is the natural enemy of the weasel. Although the weasel can climb the wall, the dog may not be able to catch up with it, but it is better than nothing, because the weasel will definitely be afraid of seeing the dog, so it can keep a country dog. But if you keep a country dog, you must keep it on a leash, otherwise it will not be worthwhile for the weasel to eat the chicken instead, but generally speaking, the dog will not eat the chicken.

3. Weasel trap

There are generally tools for catching weasels on the market, such as buying some rat clips and putting them at the entrance and exit of the chicken cage. as long as the weasel comes to steal the chicken, it will definitely step on the clip and cannot move, and the clip is not lethal. But it is enough to scare away the weasel, in addition to clips and mouse stickers and other hidden devices can be tried to use, so that after a few times the weasel will not dare to come back.

4. Fresh pig blood

Mix some fresh pig blood with poison and hang it near the village. in fact, weasels eat chicken sometimes brought by rats, so there may be less weasels after getting rid of the rats first, and there are many ways to kill rats. I'm not going to say any more here.
