Well folks, came home from work to find the fox has taken my lav orp....she was penned but has on occasion flown out and gone free ranging....just ordered more fox traps...boy its discouraging....




follow up, I went across the railroad tracks and looked for signs....about 20ft off the railroad found a feather pile and about 10' away under some honeysuckle plants found the opening to the den.....now to find the other den openings.....paybacks are coming....

You're very luck to find an opening to a fox's den. Foxes are the worst predator we have. They're sneaky, they're fast. Trying to find their dens is difficult and they're experts at escaping traps. We've caught raccoons and opossums, everything but the foxes that got our chickens.

Dang that's rough... sorry you are having such a time of it with the fox... hope you find the other opening and can provide payback soon!

Before I drop a couple grand this weekend, anyone have anything good or bad to say about large riding mowers. Looking at husqvarna in the 48" range to cover 2-3 acres. How do they hold up? Wish I could afford a rider and a tractor with a belly motor, but money is tight. Need to make do with a rider.

Tractor supply had cubs you can get on credit card if you want to make payments...just saying!

I looked at a lot of mowers and the cubs were on the list. I avoid credit, tractor supply doesn't deliver, and the cub is a redesigned model this year. It's tough going by online reviews since there are always defective products and those are the people most likely to write a review.
My property isn't the same as the next guys, so my use will be different. My neighbor actually had a John Deere dealer come out to recommend the best for his property, a 25hp diesel garden tractor. My land is similar, but I can't justify that kind of purchase.
Ended up at Lowes, and I rarely go there, don't like their location, a pain in the butt drive. At least my nephew has a loyalty card there. Didn't save me anything, but that kind of purchase on his card is bound to get them some nice coupons!

Did. You get it, you could have used one of the trucks..
Knowing your property, I would say go as large as you possibly can, you will be glad you did.
