owls killing rabbits

Post by BJ »

Screech owls have just about wiped out the rabbits in my starting pen. Is there something out there that will get rid of them?. Seems like I read a few years ago that there was some sort of flashing light that kept them away. Solar powered too.

We have the red flashing lights in both of our running pens. They have made a difference for us at Quail Farm Beagle Club. A few of our Members work for the Department of Transportation, and were able to purchase some of the lights and the poles to mount them on. Once installed our owl predation dropped dramatically. Ideally we need probably about 10 more per pen though. These are the battery operated ones like you see on the highway.
