Foxes. Love or hate?

I 100% Agree!!

 

I've never been on a forum before, and I'm getting a bit lost with all this backward and forwards, and answering individuals, so please bear with me if I miss anyone's posts! (Must put this on my introduction also!)

 

Hate them, Nasty noisy vicious things, screeching under my bedroom window at 2am in the morning, digging out plants if you unthinkingly used blood.fish or bone meal
fertilizer, we have woodland scrub here, it is where they live but my sister a few miles from here has the urban type I which I have seen lift his leg up on the lamp post whilst strolling down the road on the pave ment and they poo outside her back door, Oh no you can keep them.

 

Oh yes. We get the screeching too!

 

Rosa,ive been here 2yr plus i think and im still not up to speed but all our lovely member bare with me

 

Ha ha. I'm in safe hands then

 

Hurry up and open your garden Rosa it'll giveme a good excuse to go back to the Peak District......one of my favorite places

 

30 years ago i lost all my hen, now i have not lost any hens at all, even seen freddy the fox going in to the hen house and coming out empty handed, no fences, no runs just everything is open 24/7 the door on the hen house is allways open day and night,

A hen house can also be a trap for the hens, so nice big house and all perches up high, nest boxs all 10 foot above the ground (need a ladder to get eggs ) lots of room in the house for the hens to get out of the way, make shore that freddy cann't climb up anything at all or jump from perch to perch

When hens are outside there is lots of perches all 10 foot high and above, the only way to get to the perches is to fly or by ladder, not seen freedy with wings or a ladder yet freedy just walks through where the hens are many times through out the day and he's not even interested in the hens because he cann't catch any of them

I always look at things from a different side
One day some one took all the fuel out of my car, so i replaced to cap with none locking one to make easy to open etc
then put another tank and filler in the boot, filled the old tank with water, then one day some one took that

 

Nice one Jiffy
But beware...i'm sure i've seen our Freddy walking around with a ladder

 

Not a 10 foot ladder i hope

 

Ha ha. It'll be a while I think. I lost all my tropicals in the cold winter, the year before last. I've got so much space that I don't know what to do with now

 

I think il lose some tonight if it goes down to -10 l

 

Joolz its going to very cold here as well the sky is so clear I had to make a emergency dash to get fuel for my NEW paffain heater that has kept the greenhouse frost free so far its packed out with garden goodies

Spruce

 

I lost 3 big tree ferns, 3 palms, and a massive group of Musa Basjoo ranging from babies to 8 foot stems.

 

Thats a shame rosa sorry for youi lost a well established fatsia,bay tree plus other stuff that winter,ive got a basjoo planted now but i doubt it will survive its first winter! Im just hoping the plants in the gh survive with no heating or my tropical theme section ive got planned will be very bare chuffin weather x
