Some of you bumpkins out there might be familiar with Mother Earth News and Grit magazine. Shortly after Brandi and I became hillbillies (in May of '09), we had our rural neighbors driving up to our little farm in their golf carts giving us handfuls of old homesteading magazines including Mother and Grit. We were hooked from the get go!
Now I've been honored to be accepted as a regular blogger for Community Chickens, an online magazine from the publishers of the aforementioned publications. The blog is called Community Cluckers. Feel free to check out my first contribution, For Love Of Poultry.

No, I haven't shot a coyote. But I did pop some dogs with a BB gun in the wee hours of the morning one time.
The protocol is protect your flock at all costs, but usually in the middle of the night I'm dead asleep. Thankfully our coop is pretty secure, and we also have a Great Pyrenees that sleeps within 5 feet of the coop.

That's awesome. Have you shot a coyote yet? What's the protocol when discovering something (or someone???) invading your coop in the middle of the night?
