Recently there has been a fox which is killing or poultry. He is only leaving the feathers. We have an open run, which the chickens can sometimes jump out of. Our coup is in no good condition to fight off a fox. What are some measures we can go to to ensure that the chickens will stop being killed?
P.S. - the fox has only killed outside of the coup and run so far.How do I prevent a fox from hunting my chickens?
If you have a proper wildlife proof pen foxes will not be a problem. Sounds like you need to make adjustments to your coop. If you don't..expect more chickens to be killed, as long as you are offering a free meal..wildlife will take it.How do I prevent a fox from hunting my chickens?
Unfortunately, you can't stop a wild animal from hunting for its food. The only way to ensure the survival of your chickens will be to completely enclose and secure the chickens, especially at night when the fox is going to be actively hunting.
If foxes smell something that they don't like, they won't go near it, so put something foul around your chiken coupe.
haha,where are you? How wonderful there is a fox appeared! I envy you so much.
