hi all
first of all, the nature of my work means that guns are out of the question.
the problem is i have some chickens grazing in a field in a mobile chicken ark surrounded by an electric fence. the fence keeps the fox out of the way as long as the fence charger is switched on and the battery is charged. there are times when the fox still gets in because i rely on volunteers to do this work, and due diligence is not always apparent.
i am currently due delivery of 50 beautiful black rock pullets (young laying hens). and i don't want to lose them, a mad fox could potentially kill the lot in one night.
does anyone on the forum have experience of any EFFECTIVE humane fox trapping and removal techniques and what is the best method?
