    They’re footholds and when set and sized properly for the animal you’re trying to catch they are perfectly humane. They are the same kinds of traps that have been used to reintroduce endangered species and help populations all over the world. Please don’t believe the myths you hear. Any redneck...

    I may have missed it but the roosters were killed right? No peeing around your yard will only make your yard smell like pee. The foxes and whatever else can smell every person and animal on you property. They know your there and they avoid you when they go after the birds. They do it for a...

    What job was your roosters doing? Sometimes I’ll go a few years without any fox issues then I’ll have to catch 2-3 in a year. They come when they want. No chicken makes a difference.

    It’s only senseless when people don’t take the necessary steps to keep them alive. Free ranging birds 24/7 will result in an occasional loss since legally you can’t do anything about hawks and owls. Everything else can be trapped. I keep birds totally free range.

    You can do it at night with a red light but your cats are an issue. The eye shine is different and it takes awhile to see the difference at a glance when you only have a sec or two to decide whether to shoot or not. It’s worth a try but plan on many hours sitting in the dark getting eaten alive...

    The games just run faster or fly away a little quicker. The bigger bird that is still alive is because it’s bigger and could take an attack a little better. Left unchecked foxes and coyotes will take every single chicken you have game or not. Gamefowl are no match for a fox. They are tougher...

    If you plan on allowing birds to run loose in your yard I’d suggest you pick up some foothold traps and learn how to prepare and set them. Your cats and rooster weren’t a deterrent against a fox or a coyote or a raccoon for that matter. I have a bunch of cats outside and a whole mess of...

    Do you actually plan on trying to trap the animal? Are you going to go get the needed traps?

    Trap the foxes on the other side of the road. If you don’t own it try and get permission. I’ve had the same exact thing happen with a fox crossing the street and into my front yard.
