walshie 2,804 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 One of the sheep (not mine but it is in my field) died today and has been stinking up in the sun all day. Already got it's eyes missing. Now do I call the farmer to come and collect it or do I set up my rifle and lamp and wait to see how many foxes come and visit? Decisions, decisions. Quote Link to post

Born Hunter 18,001 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Now now, come on, be honest...... you missed didn't you! Built it up on here, couldn't come back and say "feck it I missed" so gave that old diamond "yeah, the bugger never showed up mate". Never used that one before. 3 Quote Link to post

Tremo 138 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) split it open The crows seem to be doing a fair job of that at the moment. I would have shot those buggers first and worried about the fox after. Have you never heard of the old adage "................ a crow in the hand is worth a fox in the bush"??

The one 8,616 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Maybe it would take the foxes a day or two to find it and start feeding on it ,on one permission here after a week there's only odd bits of wool left even the big bones are gone Quote Link to post
