    My hubby and I just finished a chicken coop.

This is a young fox and what you see him doing is killing and staching his catch behind this big drum @ 2 o'clock ! Me having a pet Fox gave me a first glimpse on just how "" SNEAKY, DESTRUCTIVE, FAST, SMART, INTELLIGENT, TENACIOUS, SMART, FAST LEARNERS, INTELLIGENT, BRAVE, RESILIENT, SMART THEY TRULY ARE ! Anja is going on 2 years old and I questioned my sanity a many times when I first got her ! But in the end, it was worth it. A tremendous learning curve for me and tolerance from her of me.......now , she's part of the family, uses the cat box while inside, has free range of the entire property via a cat door and Invisible fence......but she still loves that chicken...

    That took all night for the fox to kill. Anyway, I love foxes a lot but I have to say, I'm sorry for your chickens. What I suggest you do if you ever get more chickens is to get a safer chicken coop. If a fox does find a way to get inside again, well... idk what you should do... most people would just say shoot the fox, but I don't agree with that. You should find another way to get rid of it (without hurting it). I hope this helps.

    A shabby or a makeshift coop is what predators love. It's the best way to let them kill and eat your poultry, not only because the predators are able to get in but because chickens are not able to escape anywhere. When a fox attack a flock of chickens outside it can catch only one specimen (if it's lucky) while all the others run and fly away and hide themselves or find a refuge. Chickens use to sleeps on trees, it's how they protect themselves from attacks. All similar birds do that (turkeys, peafowl, pheasants, etc.) while waterfowl sleep on the borders of a pound/lake, ready to get into the water if a danger approaches. if you want to have poultry, please build up or buy a real, robust poultry house and lock up every door and window during the night.

    • @sailsafe9279
      @sailsafe9279 2 роки тому

      Yes. I have had the chickens our in the garden at times and occassionally forgot to let them in. Then I would find them up in hedge and trees in the morning. It is awfull how the coop makes it possible for the fox to kill them all as you are absolutely right: there is no way the fox can catch more than one as the rest easily can fly up to higher grounds and be out of harms way. I felt so bad when I watched the surveillance clip the following morning of this incident.

    I completely free range my birds without fencing on several acres way up north, but I have multiple large roosters for defense. It brings my food cost's down to an extreme level as they forage for anything they want on green pasture all day, people spend so much money on protection and then so much money on food because of a isolated closed habitat, predators will always find a way or eventual make a way over several visits trying to get in.

    A few weeks back I woke up to frantic clucking outside my window. My dad, step Mom, little brother and I walked out to a sea of feathers and two fox hounds cashing my chickens. Thankfully, none were killed but one of them was seriously injured. After that we shot the dogs with a bb gun and locked them up in extra kennels we had. After that we posted an add on every form of social media saying whoever's dogs these where to pick them up within the next day or they'd go to the pound. Eventually the dogs went to the shelter and after that I stand guard ready to hurt anything that comes near my girls. Mama's gonna protect her girls by any means necessary.

I made a chicken shed just for them, and placed hardware cloth along the bottom to prevent rats chewing up into it, and I close it off completely at night (aside from their ventilation). If they still get attacked, it will be during the day in their open yard, and maybe I will have a chance to save them. Wild things should just eat wild things.

      Sometimes people build their chicken coops when there are no predators currently in the area and so they let their guard down. Then, before they know it, a fox moves into the area and raid their coop.
      Furthermore, sometimes people do not have the resources to build their coops like fortresses, which is almost the level required to keep a determined fox out, as anybody who has ever dealt with foxes and chickens knows, so it is easier eliminate predators by shooting and poisoning them.

      I suppose it is of general interest what happens when a fox breaks into a chicken coop. Up to the time of this recording I had lost 9-10 chickens and wasn’t sure it was a fox.

      Grant W. Whitwam A fox thinking ahead, strategical:
      It have no idea about a hen-house ...
      ... but it see _"many preys ... and they not leaving"_ ... then it thinks _"kill as much you can, before they can get away ... then bring the catch piece of piece to the den"._
      Also foxes search often for eggs, as they need the calcium for their bones, special young foxes.

    I love it! The chaos is absolutely fantastic. Lunch time came for the very clever fox. It probably has little ones at home to feed. Most owners should understand that at times all their dumb chickens will be ripped to shreds. It's normal. People want chicken 🐔 for dinner, and so do the marauding creatures around them.

      I have a 22 mag with "shot shells", not as good as the 410. Just the same, the best thing, seriously man--the best thing is make a good shelter that the fox can't get into. After all, the fox is only trying to feed her young --can you really blame her for that? But if you keep her out, build a good pen--that's it, she will try once, not get in and give it up.
