Expert here: Cody you seem to be dealing with a goblin. Very mischievous, they like to steal things (often chickens) and exclaim “i’ll be having that!”. Solutions can be found online. Best of luck!
Born and raised farm girl here: Cody you seem to be dealing with a weasel. They tend to only eat the brain of chickens which explains some only missing their heads. They are also very capable of manipulating latches and sneaking in under/through feces. Even chicken wire. Raccoons will savagely tear a chicken apart on site, and coyotes tend to take the chicken with them. A more humane way to ward off predators is to leave an old school radio, left on an AM talk radio station going in the chicken coop 24/7. The predators won’t usually come around if they hear people talking. Honestly, any 24/7 radio show would work! I hope you find this comment and I hope it helps!
Likewise you can spray cougar urine (you can buy it) in your yard, the scent of a bigger predator is a huge deterrent to coyotes. You can also get a livestock guardian dog, they will patrol your property of their own accord and guard your livestock. I can recommend Great Pyrenees, they'll fight off coyotes and anything else threatening your pets.
I dont know if coyotes experience the same thing, but there are times when foxes will get into coops and go a little crazy. They kill everything they can and usually only end up eating one chicken. There are a few ideas as to why foxes do this, but a similar thing could happen with a coyote and it wouldn't be that much of a reach
Lol yeah, my stepdad used to hunt deer with bow and arrow and he told me that you sometimes couldn't tell if you hit it because the arrow would go clean through.
@@MrAwEsOmE145770 sorry to break it to you but not knowing how to kill a coyote isn't representative of being out of touch with reality. a lot of countries don't even have coyotes.
20:52 logan really saw his chained up in 120 degree weather dog outside, dead and rotting in the sun, and decided from that day forward he would capture a random coyote, pretend it was the one that killed his dog and Kraven the hunter it for content.
A coworker of mine has 300 cows. The other day the cows bust thru their electric fence two nights in a row. My coworker and some of his neighbors brought beers, dip, & night vision scoped AR-15s, took out fifteen plus coyotes in the cow pasture.
34:13 “These are like the navy seals of canines” is an accurate description. In NM we have em like crazy too. My mom let our dog outside while she was making coffee in the kitchen and in like 5 minutes our dog got attacked by a coyote that hopped our 6ft wall WHILE THE BACKDOOR WAS OPEN
I have a core memory from my childhood of my dad killing a coyote, it had killed our tiny sausage dog in broad daylight whilst we where in the back yard 😭, but seriously those fuckers are so quick with it RIP Lola
My family had chickens while I was growing up and we had them for close to three years and one day they just simply vanished after a night that my parents threw a particularly crazy party. For 8 months my mom was completely convinced that the strange emo boy that lived next door; who was a little older, and got into trouble often; kidnapped and murdered our chickens. He didn’t; it turns out one of their wastes friends opened the coop, didn’t close it, and then our dog got to em and buried them throughout the yard and we were finding said bones for years after. What makes it absurd that my mom full on believed that this guy sacrificed our chickens to the devil himself lol.
been watching every episode & the bonus for 3yrs straight bc of how easy it was while working. due to budget cuts i have to go back to being a server which are always hectic/weird hrs. just wanted to say don’t ever stop w/ the content! literally gets me tru the week sometimes knowing ima laugh a couple times no matter how hard the situation is
I am SO relieved to hear Cody always having Chili on a leash till there’s a safe place for him. That Jen Atkin experience truly messed me up and they had 6ft fences.
Dude back when I was 20, I was drinking at this party out in the sticks. Shit ton of sheriffs show up and bust it. Being a minor I took off in the middle of pitch black night, in the wilderness, the only terrain being illuminated by moonlight. While wandering after I lost the sheriffs, I head a pack of coyotes in the distance just howling their asses off. Legit one of the scariest times while partying
27:31 Bow and arrows can arguably be more effective and lethal than a pew pew for multiple reasons. One reason is that bow and arrows are much more stealthy than pew pews
the same shit with the chickens happened to me a few years back, it was racoons that got them for me, I only had three chickens at the time. the first one gone was the sweetest of the three, baby, we thought she just escaped at night and was lost in the woods, we looked all over the woods trying to find her. after baby was gone the rooster was different, his spur was broken, some of his feathers ruffled, and in the days before all the chickens would finally be gone his beak would be broken. its clear now that the rooster was probably fighting against the racoons nightly, but eventually the racoons got to him. I woke up one morning to my rooster lying in the coop with his neck completely broken and his feathers all around. we gave him a proper burial and went on to search for the hens. suffice to say we did not find them, but at the time hope was all we could have.
He saw a video of his dogs death, waited in the trees for weeks waiting for any coyote to walk by to no luck. He gave up, til one night he decided to try again and come across a big coyote and killed it. That coyote didn’t kill his dog lmao he’s such a twisted dude
As a current olympic style archer in LA, I felt like a complete nerd that entire time lmfao. Impact for the style you guys watched typically delivers around 30-40lbs of force into the target even at 70 meters (which is not easy at all btw 😭).
Y’all live in a completely different world when I comes to guns! It amazes me how little people know about firearms in very parts of the country. I still love y’all though!!
Certain things just come with that reality😂. You’re probably a nerd, but Archery is awesome! And that’s just how it is lmao. (Former band geek, Also, huge DND nerd and I play Kendama. I am one of you!)
Arrows, especially from a crossbow, definitely go all the way through. Shot many dear and have had to dig my arrow out of the ground after it went right through the deer
Hey brother, as a man from Missouri, I can tell you a broad head would probably stop towards the other side of Coyote's ribcage. That being said, depends on the sharpness of the broadhead, thickness of the broadhead, and poundage on the string. We also have penetrative arrows specialized for pest control.
Hey Cody and Noel, First off, thanks for all the years of content. You guys have been a staple in my entertainment diet for a long time now. So, I’ve got a bit of a conspiracy theory brewing, and I need your help. I met my boyfriend two years ago, and I swear, you both are somehow reading his mind. He brings up topics that you two also discuss, like “infrabren on TikTok” (seriously creepy) and UFC (right down to your favorite fighters). Then there was the time he got obsessed with “I Wanna Be Sedated” for two weeks, and suddenly, Cody starts singing it. The coincidences are piling up so high that I refuse to believe it’s just random chance. Here’s the kicker: my boyfriend doesn’t watch your videos. Trust me, I’ve seen his RU-vid history-it’s all Elden Ring playthroughs. I’ve mentioned this bizarre overlap to him, and he just laughs it off. But come on, there’s no way this is just a coincidence. And to top it all off, he even looks like a cross between the two of you. I mean, seriously? Also, my boyfriend works at Tim Hortons as a manager. I’d love to give you guys a bunch of Timbits as a thank you (or a bribe to stop freaking me out). I thought I was just being silly, but now I’m genuinely confused and a little scared. Are you guys pranking me? Do you secretly know my boyfriend? Looking forward to your response, because I’m not sure if I should be amused or concerned. Best, Leah
My family lives in rural Wyoming and I have a cousin who was 8 years old when she had hella chickens that got mauled, she took her dad’s BB gun and shot the coyote 😭😭 my uncle was so proud and sent a pic of him, dead, to my dad and I was like 🫢 we aren’t close but that could be one of the main contributing factors lmao
My cats name is General Tso too!! I found him at a Panda Express drive thru so I thought the name was fitting 😅 Rip to Codys chickens tho 🙏 my General will live on in their name 🫡
rural missourian here and that comment was so funny because my dad shot at least 3 coyotes but with a bebe gun cause he felt bad killing them..they didn’t come back for a long time so i think it scared them off a bit
Bebe guns can kill coyotes too. Not as easily as they will kill a bird, but they definitely will work and people have killed coyotes before with bebe guns!
Cody, might sound weird but you should get 2 geese as guards for the chickens. Geese are notoriously ferocious and territorial. They will kill anything that gets too close to the chickens, worth a try lol
my amish babysitter's kids definitely hunted Coyotes for sport and I'd just watch through my binoculars. one time I was staying overnight sleeping and I just hear someone yell "LEROY GET THE GUN" and the boys literally ran out there like we were getting raided.
26:23 Bows and arrows have been used in eastern europe in urban warfare because arrows, unlike most bullets, can pass through sandbags and still be lethal. Codys right to wonder about lethality though becuase it depends a lot on the type of arrowhead, where you hit and how many pounds of force the draw weight of a bow is
Cody and Noel, I think you'll be pleased to know that I was traumatized as a 13 year old girl strong armed into hunting a bear with a bow and arrow. It does indeed go all the way through if you get it in the heart which is the most ethical spot. 34:13
An arrow from a hunting bow travels at about 270 ft per second (200+mph) and with a 2in broad head tip it would absolutely pass through a coyote. Arrows can penetrate a shoulder blade of a deer if it’s traveling fast enough.
I had a chihuahua and a doberman shepherd. the boy(chihuahua) would start shit with coyotes thru the fence and my girl would jump the fence and chase them off so he wouldn’t get eaten 🤣
Arrows work much like a bullet if you hit the right spot they stop the target from moving immediately and if you don’t they limp till you put another in it.
airhorns are good for scaring off coyotes but my family (in pasadena) keeps a pile of rocks by the front door to throw at them when they come near our house. also if we see them when we're out we chase them down screaming
Those bows in the archery competition aren’t hunting bows. Hunting bows have a drastically heavier draw than archery bows. They will easily kill a moose. So a coyote would be obliterated.
