They also get to depend on being fed,get used to seeing/trusting people. Not everyone wants fox's around.

They are wild creatures, like rabbits.

There are far more foxes in towns than the countryside (where I live) but my chicken girlies will die if I leave them out a moment after dusk.

Do you kind 'townies' have anything in your gardens that the foxes will kill? Kittens? Birds? They kill one hen here for breakfast, take away one for their babies (awww sweet...) and kill another 20 or 30 hens at the same time that they don't want. For fun.

I have picked up 26 dead free range hens in the past.

A killing frenzy.

I love animals and have approaching a hundred in my garden - but a fox I wouldn't feed. Nasty.

And this year, for some reason, there are fox cubs dead on all the roads around here. Weird. Why? Because you so-called kind townies have banned hunting and I am putting my organic, free-range chooks to bed promptly each night so foxes cannot massacre them: fox cubs have nothing to eat and are starving. The culling that has happened for centuries is no longer allowed. You are starving these animals to death, or else they are being run over searching for food. They are not having my hens any more.

Hes right,, Joy,,,,,,you shouldnt leave food out, near your home ,as it will encrouage other virmin ,including rats,!!

especially now its getting colder as rats will stay close where they can easy get food,,

plus the fox can hunt quite happy for its own food,,,and if it cant get from you will go,,but could end up scavenging round other houses,,,,,,,,~~~
