I did a little reading on how to deal with this. Just started fee ranging them a month ago and a fox got one. We saw him a few times after and tried to shoot him to no avail. We cut down all the brush around the coop and kept the girls in the coop/run for a week. Then we threw a chicken thigh in a live trap and set it behind the coop. Still nothing. I found what I think is the den in our front field. And I've begun to let them free range again but only if we are going to be home all day...which sucks for them. So what is the next step? Where an I get the female urine? Should I camouflage the trap and try different bait? Should I do something to the "den"? I'll post a pic of it when I get to the computer. TIA!
