Weasel got into the chicken coop last night, eleven of twelve massacred.
Melons is devastated and I'm pissed that some varmint got a free fifty dollar chicken dinner.

Sucks but I got a great headline out of it.
Cement floor was going in today and the weasel somehow got past the wire that had already gone down on the floor; new birds ordered today.
Posted for the fun of the subject title.

A 22 or a 410 should help that situation...

I would imagine a weasel is a slippery critter to draw a bead on.

Probably. They move quick, but they have more bulk on them then a rat of course, which are notoriously hard to nail.

Had a friend that owned a restaurant down in the Cleveland "Industrial Flats" by the Cuyahoga River back in the 1970's. Used to be all factories, was slowly transitioning to bars and restaurants. He'd put out a big plate of spaghetti, wait for them to swarm, and blow them all to hell with a 12 Gauge Remington pump action.
Snipers hunt down and kill things one by one. Truly inspired killers do it en mass.

Instead of killing critters for doing what critters do, try making use of that frontal cortex and build a better coop.
Even before siding install, Mr. Bear crashed, climbed through screened double pane window, choked down a four of mine. Not to mention the PTSD afflicted left in his wake.
Note prints on the remaining glass.
Trashed the run.
Magpie enjoying some leftovers.
Last time he stopped by, electric fence i installed delivered somewhere around 18 Joules of GTFO. Hasn't been back since.
