fox hunting

[Fishsticks06]

i just lost one of my hens to a fox, i need basic hunting tips on how to kill foxes. i know of basic hunting regulations, but when it comes in my yard I’m shooting it

never hunted fox before, mainly coyotes. but i would say use enough gun. .22 mag or .17hmr should work well. that is what my friend uses and he's a fur trapper.

calls and baits should work well. and if there is one there is likely more.

I have used leg traps but now with so many people buying land and building homes in our area, I now only live trap. I also eliminated a bobcat that killed 14 of my birds one night. It shouldn't have came back. I only eliminate after they have breached and killed any of my birds.

I have lived trapped and shot with a high powered pellet rifle. Either method will work for getting the bugger. The live trap takes a little time, a week or so and shooting is being there at the right time. Good luck
