Last summer/ fall I posted on here about the fox that was getting my chickens. Some of you recommended trapping him, shooting him or using golden fly poisin. Well he left last year and I never had problems all winter until the last 2 weeks he got 2 chickens and a duck of mine. I kinda thought he moved out of the area which was good cause I really didnt want to have to kill him. I saw him twice this year, once in my car down the road and last week behind the barn. Looks like he dont have hair on his tail. So I figured I'm done being nice had had to get rid of him. I put out the coke and fly poisin friday night on the edge of the woods, go out sat morning and the poison is gone. I figured better go check that the barn cats are ok and didnt drink the stuff, was told they wont. I go into the barn and walk to the back room in the barn that the cats hang out in and theres the fox sleeping in a reclining chair I'm saving for a deer blind. Poison didnt kill him!!!! maybe I didnt give him enough????? Hes got poop all over, must be marking the barn as his area, never thought he would feel comfortable enough to live in my barn. He also bit my one cat on the rear leg, missing hair and 3 bite marks and cat cant walk on that leg.
So poisin him again with a stronger mix??? I been carring my 22 mag all the time with me now but cant shoot inside the barn. I thought I had a god mix of poisin, I thought after they eat it they only make it a few feet and die??? Sorry for the long rant but I'm done being nice to him.
Any ideas??
Thanks
