[dannyevans1990 25]

A friend of mine is having a spot of bother with a fox or could possibly be more? They are demolishing his chickens even tho he has tried different things to make it more secure,he wants me to locate the fox and he will shoot it we have set bait ect and no joy of him showing next step is to find its hole,what kind of ground do they like ect so we could maybe find it and eliminate the problem,any help on finding it guys? Thanks

Danny it may not be the local resident fox causing the harm to the chickens, foxes can travel up to 5 miles a night,, do you not know anybody locally that can find them with terriers.

just secure your stock. if you kill one they will just keep coming........and coming ............and coming.

 

if you want to get rid of a particular culprit try traps or snares. or sit in the cope with a gun and be prepared for a long wait.

Handy bits of kit though mate

Danny you could go through a lot of foxes before you would get the culprit, what is the area like for fox numbers,, unless you do a stakeout,, fox will more than likely come back when there is a free meal..
