Phonix Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Awww sue and alan I feel awful for you both. Im sure it was no fault of yours - foxes can be very good at getting exactly what they want and will wait for the perfect opportunity. Hope you feel better soon xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iar fach goch Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 soooo sorry to hear about the chickens, I was just thinking today how we'd all cope if something happened to our new chooks. We don't seem to have had a visit from Mr Fox yet, but I shall have to try and make more of an effort to lock them in sooner at night. Were your girls in the eglu run at the time of the attack?
