This afternoon I was drinking some RRL tea at the table waiting for our youngest to finish lunch so I could nap, and out of the corner of my eye I saw a fox bounce out of the tall grass and onto one of our chickens!! Before I knew it I was out the door yelling like a banshee! I chased it pretty far, it stopped twice, neither time could I see it's muzzle. Finally I gave up and retraced my steps hoping to find a dazed hen. No luck.
BUT- this evening we counted the layers and found we stall had all of them. So that darn fox must have dropped her. I just missed seeing it happen. Trying to not trip probably.
YAY! We still have our chickens! But how to keep them safe. hmmm.
