Welcome to BYC from West TN ! I saw a post a couple of weeks back about some one catching a fox in a live trap doing the following. Set live trap with a bird cage placed against the back end.. Then covering all with a tarp to black it out. They are usually pretty tough to catch in a live trap. If the fox is still getting into the coop or run and you can keep the other pets away you could also look into using a cable snare.. Check youtube on how to make and set.. Last resort make your coop a fort knox to keep them out. It may be in this thread. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...ther-graphic-pics-pic-heavy/400#post_11821868 Good Luck and Let us Know how it goes.
