Well, 41 laying hens so far this month, last post was on 4/8/16. Set up trail camera and got a great picture of large male red fox sniffing Connibear trap at small door to hen house (will try to post). But we all know foxes only kill for food not for fun, right? WRONG, Thursday evening at dusk my wife heard commotion in chicken pen and chased large male red fox over 6' chain link fence before I could get there with shotgun (younger wives can run faster).In less then 2 minutes he had killed 4 of the replacement hens and tore up 6 others.

Friday night at 7 I decided roof was to uncomfortable and I would sit in skidloader facing chicken pen.

Hope this ends chicken predation for a while.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor.
