        Maybe pop them with a air gun? That’s what my kids do when they get raccoons in the chicken coop.

          opossums got 2 of my chickens and hawk got the other... you can definitely take them down with a pellet gun I have done it mine is one of those decent but cheap 1000 fps break barrel guns.

            Its the flies that attract the possums. Get you some golden maldrin fly bait. Mix something sweet like. Dr pepper with it. Put it where your chickens can't get it. It will get rid of the flies and every possum will be gone.

              I get one on my fence about once a week and it drives my dogs crazy. I go out there knock it over the fence with a broom and the dang thing keeps coming back. Any other things that deter them?

                Still always amazes me that people get on public forums condoning and advising people to illegally kill wildlife with fly bait poison. I hope the GW's are watching yall....

                  Possums eat thousands of ticks a year. They serve a benefit, just not if you have unprotected chickens.

                    I am going to guess knocking it to the INSIDE of the fence with the dogs would deter him LOL!

                      Cheapest repeating possum trap is a open top 55 gallon barrel, put some fish or other bait in it and place next to a tree or wood post. Possums climb up and jump in and cant jump out!

                        Or wild turkey. They’re big nest predators.

                                Just tired of these snowflakes wanting bad things to happen to people to protect a vermin that is killing his animals.
                                When did grown men become such wimps. Sickening.
