Can Badgers harm my chooks?

[Anonymous]

There are a lot of Badgers living close to me.

Can these harm my chooks? I usually lock them up at night.

yes they can, and they have very strong 'arms' so can break into more places than foxes, also they are brilliant climbers. We have loads round us and they have eaten through metal fencing just to cross our garden.

Venessa is right - you should be careful Barry. They are also excellent diggers unfortunately... :?
