Shilojo Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Next door's builders said that a fox was determined to get into my Go Up earlier today (broad daylight). They kindly chased it off but said it was going crazy and looked like it would manage to get in. I know that the eglus are supposedly fox-resistant so I guess I just wanted some reassurance and/or any tips to make sure that I keep my ladies safe. I've put a few bricks down on the skirt to weigh it down and I'm planning to try to get my husband to wee around the garden this evening . Is there anything else I could do? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavclojak Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Have you used the pegs all around the base? Other than covering with slabs I don't think there is a lot more than can be done. Is the fox getting over a wall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 As Gavclojak says if you've used the pegs and added slabs I'm not sure if there is much more you can do. Although it may be worth suring up the joins between the mesh panels with extra cable ties. I don't know how the Go Up attached to the run but maybe there's scope to increase protection there as well? Could you put an electric fence around the run so the fox can't get so close? Must be very stressful for the girls even if the fox can't actually get them. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
