OK I guess this is down to me......... a hard lesson!

Went out this morning and found the chickens out! I had shut the door last night but not bolted it - both pullets missing, 5 cockerels that I'm trying to get rid of safe and sound

One pullet found 100 yds away hiding - other one just feathers

both 20 weeks what a b****r!!!

Foxy and me have been playing tag for the last couple of days - I shouted at him Monday when he tried a snatch no more that 10 feet from me!

Oh no! I am sooo very sorry. Sounds like its time for a trap...better get that fox, before he cleanes you out!

 

[mom'sfolly]

Didn't they just ban foxhunting on your shores????

Where are those folks with the hounds when you need them?

 

[chrissieg]

The hunting season's just about to start - they can still flush them out, but the hounds aren't supposed to kill them!!
We are allowed to shoot them though and give them a lingering death - (don't set me off on this one please..... fishing is the next target I understand)

Tally Ho!!

 

[SpottedCrow]

That really is a bummer...sorry for your losses...

 

[cheepchicks]

I am so sorry .
