Stavross 13,711 Posted February 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Well, managed one, I’m 90% this is not the one from the bottom field that turns up at daft o’clock and smiles for the camera, it’s a very small vixen, the other one looks much bigger, I didn’t even get it in the field it was sat in the corner of the garden on the property at the front of the land, only 65 yards so the .243 was a bit over the top, but dead’s dead 2 Quote Link to post

I have a Free range Chicken Geese and Duck farm and its averaged out to 14 fox a year over the last few years, never stops, only small gaps! 2 1 Quote Link to post

That’s quite a small amount given the attraction of those birds to foxes , my pal has a chicken farm it’s like McDonald’s to them I’m sure they bus infrom London ...I could quite comfortable shoot double that on my couple of acres if I put my mind to it ..I put the lamp around the garden a couple of nights ago there was one in the veg plot digging and two in the field next door that’s after I shot those three the other day ..

It's certainly 2-4 families a year, I keep on top of it so they never get to big numbers! Edited February 15, 2019 by Deker 1 Quote Link to post
