well the tables have turned it seems, at least for this bunch of chooks.

[A chickychickychick-ENN!!]

Hurrah!

Aw Poor fox. Maybe if they'd had a properly secure run they wouldn't have lost so many chickens or that poor fox wouldn't have suffered a miserable death. Although I bet it died of a heart attack before the chickens set to it.

do you know I was just think the same thing!

Chooks would peck at anything if it was dead!

I dont think poor fox anything, thats one less fox the chooks have got to worry about IMO. It shouldn't have been there it wouldn't have got hurt.

[Alis girls]

Give those girls an ASBO - I know females are getting more violent but violent chucks what is the world coming too. Hi five girls for getting one over on Mr Fox

Our little darlings can be vicious little B's when they have a mind to.

Someone said on another site that the owner might be prosecuted for hunting with chickens. I presume it was a joke.

Trouble is these days we cant be so sure

 

I saw a pic of the run it was rickity at best

[tara]

I saw this there was no fox protection for them at all how do they sleep at night

[fluffyfeet]

It was obviously Attilla the Hen, Arnie Schwarzenpecker, Hengis Khan and Hennibal Lector that carried out the evil deed......

 

mwah hahahaha

[Lewis]

I saw this in the metro this morning - have cut it out and kept it

 

If only I could teach mine to do that

[grracee]

So did my neighbour and she posted it through my letter box in the hope it would bring a smile to my face

[..lay a little egg for me]

Pity The Sun can't spell "coop" though Or maybe it was a joke: the hens delivered the coup de grace to the fox?

[Ophelia]

I hate to see any animal suffer. I hope the stool killed him quickly.

 

As much as I don't want the foxes getting hold of my girls I do appreciate that they have a pretty tough life.

I saw this on the news presented as some sort of 'feel good' story. It upset me. i hate to think of anything suffering or dying and the owner of the chickens should have been far more cautious considering they'd been foxed in the past!

 

People defend domestic cats that kill birds by saying "it's just in their nature". Well, isn't it in a fox's nature to kill a chicken? Surely a fox has more reason than a cat too as the fox needs to eat!

 

I find it a very sad story and i'm quite frankly disgusted at people who think the fox deserved it.

[foreveryoung]

Well the fox shouldn't have been able to get in their in the 1st place, then the stool or the chocks wouldn't have been/ got or even hurt the other.....

 

but then again 1 point to the chocks - give a diff angle on it but nature will be nature

your entitled to your opinion Poet, and others, like me, are entitled to ours, I would never call you 'disgusting' though (which is what you were saying) just for voicing our personal opinions.

 

Please keep the thread on pesonal opinions rather than insults

I think this is abit of an over reaction..... I do think poet was generalizing rather then calling anyone disgusting... its horrid that any animal got killed.... when my birds got foxed we cornered the fox and I was soo angry and upset i sent my hubby to get the shovel as I was more then ready to kill that animal out of anger (Ive never hurt any animal in my life nor would i ever) but then i thought that its just the cruel fate of nature and that I should have been more careful, therefore I couldnt hold the fox responsible for what comes naturally to them in order to survive. all I can do now is learn from my mistakes and make things safer for the hens that I still have!

 

 

lets keep this civil and accept everyone has a view. its hard to get the true meaning of what ppl say as we cant hear their tone of voice of expressions on their faces!

 

*cruels back under the table waiting!!*

[Cooks]

I am quite happy to read everyone's view but I dislike being called disgusting which is how I interpreted the reply I referred to. I am entitled to my opinion just like you are and don't feel it an overreaction

 

edited because I forgot to spell check

[foreveryoung]

I am quite happy to read everyones view but I dislike being called digusting which is how I interpreted the reply I referred to. I am entitled to my opnion just like you are and dont feel it an overeaction

 

 

you weret quoted directly by poet - no one was! and I never stated you werent entitled to your opinion

[Cooks]

I never said you did, I was stating a fact.

 

It was a collective comment about all posters that had a different opinion I disliked, I never said at any time I was quoted by Poet

[Christian]

Another line drawn please........
