tidygirlsuk Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 When i got up this morning there were rubber chippings all over the grass and dug up earth. My chickens are alive and well but the thick elastic that holds the sun shade was chewed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Oh my word . Thank goodness that's all he got at . Were your girls locked in the eglu at the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidygirlsuk Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Yes, luckly. I always shut the eglui door and the other coop door. They didn't seem spoked this morning just bok boking, eating and drinking as normal. The fox did dig a hole but didn't get into the run.

Guest Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Rat too can do a lot of damage but at least its an early warning that something is out their indie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidygirlsuk Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Although I have never seen a fox out the back i have at front and we do get the odd rat too. This hole I think was to get the chickens not the feed, so i think this time it may have been a fox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I clicked on this thread with some trepidation.! Better be extra vigilant for the time being, tidy. Bloomin' fox. Have you got a foxwatch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidygirlsuk Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Yes I see why now, re-reading my topic title, sorry. No i haven't got fox watch. Is there one that you would recomend. Does it help with rats too ? I've never used any poison as i don't want my chooks or children to get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
