The Dogmother Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I'm so sorry to hear that news Nutmeg. Foxes are very hungry right now with the cubs being due soon; an enormous dog fox walked nonchalantly across our path on Sunday when I was walking the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docsquid Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I went for a walk at our wildlife site in the snow this morning. There were fox prints everywhere. They were clearly after the rabbits as there were rabbit prints everywhere too. I rarely see foxes there, although occasionally hear them. I hadn't appreciated just how many foxes there must be around that we never see. My chooks are staying in unless I'm in the garden with them. In this weather it means 1/2 to 1 hour FR only a day, but they seem happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauty-Box Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 So sorry to read of your loss. One of my lovely girls was killed by a fox. It's a horrible thing to happen. We had never seen a fox, even though we had lived here for 5 years. Don't let it put you off keeping chucks. I have two chickens left and I'm much more careful and they have been fine. Sending hugs your way.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I am so sorry to hear your sad news. We were just saying last night that we must be extra careful in case the foxes get more bold as they get desperate for food in this weather.
