“RIP beautiful BlueBoy. The coyotes came in broad daylight and devoured him and five others including the magnificent White Boy. Any solutions for getting rid of six large and aggressive coyotes who have expensive tastes when it comes to poultry? We are no longer allowing the peafowl out of their yard, we are enclosing the top of their large yard with wire fencing etc.”

The sprawling 156-acre – Seven house – Bedford, New York farm, has at least three horses, 150 chickens, many geese and numerous peacocks, among other animals.
