Feeder doors keep closing when I walk away

[Surfnirvana]

I spoke to my neighbour at the weekend who lives down our lane. He was turning over his compost heap and found 2 dead chickens buried in there (white sussex). He knew they weren't mine as I have 2 x and 2 X . We are pretty sure they had been burried their by a fox which he has seen in the back fields.

 

We have an electric fence around our cube, which has so far worked in keeping out any unwanted predetors. However recently on more "spring-like" days I had been letting the "girls" out for half an hour or so of free ranging, whilst I've been in the house. I won't be doing that now until summertime unless I am in the garden at the same time.

 

Unfortunately I don't know whose chickens they were, but will ask around.

Very good reminder. Our new neighbours said their dog chased off a fox recently, yet we never see it - probably because we're slogging at the moment.

 

We won't let our girls out unattended at present. Only takes a moment.
