Im unsure how sly this fox is. Im not sure what is safe or not when it comes to him breaking into my coop. Its an old work building. Do u know what I should look for? As in weak points the fox might see?
Oh no sounds like he’s coming back to finish - I’d bring them inside if you can - we use an old dog cage to bring our ducks in when needed.
One thing to consider is to purchase multiple live traps and scatter them on your property, your dog can't guard all traps at once, which increases the chance of catching a predator. Traps aren't cheap though.
no the razor comes on with the motion detector lights. You can buy a screw in socket for one of the lights that has a wall plug built into it and you plug the electric razor in there. I could hear it and see the light come on very late at night almost every night until the bear came and ate all the eggs and that was it, game over but the hen did fine he just wanted her eggs.
I know! It surprised me as well. I guess he was really desperate and was stalking us and then saw its moment to strike when I took her in to eat. Thanks for the suggestions! I may try them.
My coop is an old building turned into a coop. We have decided to make a run and new coop for the new flock and my surviving girls. Would u suggest it be raised off the ground when we build a new one?
Just wish we didnt have casulties 
Ill try that! Thank you! I wanna get this fox so bad.
Happens to everyone. I’ve taken so many precautions. My bf tells me it’s so hard having pets that have a plethora of predators. We want them to have happy foraging lives so it’s hard to find a balance of safety and happiness such is life. Best of luckAlso thank you all for your suggestions and condolences .I cant believe I have to go through with this with all the precautions we took but i guess its part of the gig.
Ill try that! Thank you! I wanna get this fox so bad.
