Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Very sorry to hear that . What a horrible thing to come home to . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 we have fox traps and a gun at the ready, there not falling for a trap. killed one. the wir will be compleated by tommorow, exept from the roof cause thats a big job.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Mollie, I suggest that you halt all free ranging until the WIR is complete. The fox is only doing what comes naturally. He has found a constant supply of food. He is unaware that they are pets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Mollie that is so sad. I'd follow Egluntynes advice. At least your WIR is nearly complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 Ive locked them in the small run. no where near big enough but id rather them be loud and mardy than be dead.. the wir should be done by the end of today.. im so sad cause Jon is looking for Edward and shouting.. she also laid a double yoker (I don't know why, shes never done this before) I'm down to 6 chickens. I know its nature, but we have no choice but to shoot them. there really over populated round here, atleast 8 fox holes in my next door garden.
