I don't know if it was him but one of them had one of our chickens a few years back. She survived with a lot of stitching, antibiotics and money. Lucky we came home when we did.

I've got anti-tunnel skirts around the chicken run, guinea-pig runs and the tort enclosures. I always bring the torts in at night but as you show in that photo, foxes are about in the daytime too, especially when hungry.

We have cctv too, anything or anyone steals our torts we'll know who or what and hopefully stop them before they get away.

We get them all the time in the front but they never come in the back as the dogs have free run into the garden.
I was sat in the lounge the other day and looked out and there was a stag muntjac stood in the middle of the lawn. |
