A few days ago I was getting ready to feed and water the chickens and I notice chicken feed all over the ground. I look and the 30 gallon galvanized trash can I have used since 2020 seems to have rotted out from the inside out like they always do and sprung a leak. I covered it with duct tape until I could buy a new one in a few days. Then this morning, I noticed the tape had been clawed off and there was even more feed on the ground .... so now we have to set out to find out what predator is doing this and then trap or cull them. What do you think it is, let me know in the comments.
