Rachel33pink Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 We have had our 3 chooks for just over a year with no apparant evidence of a fox, to the extent that I let them out in to their run all day long. However, at 5 00 this morning I was woken by loud squawking and looked out to see a fox trying to get into the eglu. He ignored my hisses out of the window so I had to go out he disappeared quickly but the girls were very vocal in telling me how upset they were Now obviously I can't let them out unless I am out in the garden and they pace up and down their run looking very bored. I had made quite a big run at the back of the garden cos last year they made so much mess and kept escaping from the garden, but I think I will need to invest in a proper closed in run for them. Does anyone know of any good websites as I haven't come across any of a decent size and not sure I am up to building one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Check this thread out and this one!!! Also look at this thread! Most people use Tony at Aviaries4u, his runs are fantastic! Sorry to hear about the fox, they are horrible things Good Luck Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
