Keep your Flock Safe: Nite Guard Solar and Nite Guard Repellent Tape Giveaway!


With spring comes the arrival of new and vulnerable chicks.  After all of the time, money, and love put into raising baby chicks it is no wonder we are always looking for ways to protect them.  This week we are excited to team up with Nite Guard, to educate you on a great way to keep your flock or other live stock safe.


The family owned Nite Guard company has studied predators and their instincts, using that information to create Nite Guard Solar.  The Nite Guard Solar unit uses the flash of a light to fool the predator into thinking that a bigger and more ferocious predator may be lurking.  By using multiple Nite Guard Solar units one can better protect their entire coop or livestock pen.  Thus preventing predators from even attacking your flock.
3 Easy steps to keeping your coop safe!

Since Nite Guard Solar is only effective during the night time hours, the company has also created a solution for keeping daytime predators at bay.  Nite Guard Repellent Tape is durable holographic tape that uses light and noise to keep away predators from ground and air.  The extra wide iridescent tape works very well for keeping hawks away.  It is noisier, brighter, and last longer than other repellent tapes.


It is so very tragic to loose livestock to predators.  Nite Guard has done a great job of coming up with effective and economical ways to protect against devastating attacks.

We are excited to announce that our friends at Nite Guard are going to give away a Two Light Nite Guard Solar System and a roll of Nite Guard Repellent Tape to one of you!  

You will have one week to get your name in for the giveaway. It starts today, April 9 and will end April 16 at 12:00 pm.

  11. If I am lucky enough to win this I will give to my daughter for her birthday coming up. So sad to report that 2 fox got 4 of her chickens in her fenced backyard in daylight. She would be so excited to protect her hens.

  13. I plan on protecting a large group of amazing silkies--several are now broody, and there are a few baby chicks at the moment. Having a safety feature in place would ease my worry--Several times in the middle of the night I go out and check them, even though I have a chain link fence--don't want anything digging under, which would be easy to do. I think your product is just what I need!! And I will be able to go to sleep not worrying.

  19. Hi, I raise New Zealand rabbits and Muscovy ducks and recently (3 days ago) added two beautiful Dorking hens to my little hobby farm here in Powell River BC. I would love to win the nite-guard to deter our local predators which include black bears, wolves and cougars from coming anywhere near my coop.
