So last night I was locking the door and Cindy noticed a small raccoon inside climbing up the wall after the guineas. (They roost in the rafters.) So I ventilated him with my .45 (along with the east wall of the coop – oops!) The hens were upset so I wasn’t going to be able to get the dead coon out without them taking off so I shut the door and left them to settle down. About an hour later I checked on them again and they were all upset. There were 2 more coons locked in the coop with them. 2 more corbons fixed that. I’m really surprised they didn’t catch the guineas; guess they were upset about their sibling lying dead in front of them.
Here my ever faithfull coondawg checking out the guilty trio. Smallish, but the meat will be really tender. Can't decide where to jerk the meat or just grind it and make lasagna again.

Can you say a new fur coat?!?! Shhh..just don't let PETA find out.

The hides are pretty worthless. The fur slips right off unless you kill them in the wintertime. I didn't even save the tails. My neighbors sure were pleased their guineas are still alive, he didn't even complain about the bullethole in the side of the coop.
Can you make me one of those raccoon hats?
How Brokeback chic...
LMAO, Burr nailed you!
Brownie: You're confusing the ringed tail with a rainbow.
They're too small and the fur slips if they're killed during th summer. At least I got a few pounds of meat from them.
