surely a fox must come under vermin, what would happen if you trapped a fox in a cage or snare and didnt have a shot gun, you couldnt use a 223 or larger you would vaporize the fox and prob kill yourself, you would have to use your rimfire, so you could get done for not having fox on your ticket, That cant be right can it ?

i agree

You could be posh and buy one of those battery opperated pop holes that open up in the morning and closes at night youll be the envey of the chicken hood

I think but i could be wrong that the cumbria force regard fox as vermin so as long as you have vernin on your ticket you would be alright, but as i say im not sure mabye some one else on here would know .

my patterdale and sfaffie cross sunbath with ducks on a nice day, they now see the poultry and fowl as part of there pack, get yourself some guineafowl when they make a warning call and they will when they see anything strange aproaching ,it will alert your terrier, it wont take him long to twig on theres something about when they screech, if your lucky during the summer months they will roost in the trees (if you have any) and give you warning at night time, my terriers only have to here them now and mr fox is delt with, your own personal fox alarm.

hi mate put something in so they can roost/perch there not that keen about being on the floor. oh and dont asume foxy woxy will only come at night, I have well over a hundred hens and ive never lost one at night, any i have lost has been during the day they know there well protected at night so can only get them in day time, so when there hungry or have cubs the sly little barstewards they come in broad daylight. good luck and have fun

hi ya I have a howa 1500 stainless, black hogue stock with wildcat mod in .223 aswell, its great rifle for foxes, love the hogue stock it dosent mater how much rain there is you can hold it with out fear it will slip out of your hands, I use 55gr accutips for foxes small entry hole nice big exit hole, you can get a conversion kit so you can fit a magazine but its a bit pricey about £250, wouldnt hesitate to get another one if something happened to mine, good luck and take the plunge go treat yourself you wont regret it
