Most of the foxes I encountered did the same. They never rush to hunt the chickens. They observe insanely well. If they hear just a small noise, they run a couple steps and look back and observe the threat for a few seconds and leave. At the two instances where I shot my crossbow at them (and missed !!) they never looked back.
You folks definitely need a dog. I've never had a dog that I couldn't train to leave chickens alone, so they can walk among them and chase off day predators. At night, the chickens are locked up tight, safe from night predators.
Don't be suspicious, DON'T BEEEEEE SUSPICOUS, don't BE suspicious, DON'T BE SUSSSSPICIOUS!!!! (Innocently sniffing around to try to appear harmless) Beautiful chickens but that rooster has no guardian instincts, LOL 😬
Some people think you should allow the fox to just kill your chickens? Sounds crazy to me. When my animals need to survive the fox needs to find another hunting ground. I'm not raising chickens as fox food. I'd try traping and releasing before killing them. But my ... "Chickens Lives Matter".... over the foxes.
That fox looks pregnant. Nice to see those people realize this is the kind of predator -prey experience other people pay tens of thousands of dollars to go to Africa to see.
fox will b back .... getting braver each time till it confident it can kill chickens ....... each visit chickens will get less scared of fox like pet dog for example............ then fox will snatch one
Cant believe they were just sat there waiting to see what was going to happen ? That fox was seconds away from attacking and will be back again and again until hes had all your chickens !
She can´t believe the fox comes in the middle of the day?? She has three chickens out and about in the woods..... What? is she expecting a call or something? Fox will come whenever it is hungry.
Protect your chickens with chicken wire, we have it secured all around the site they are enclosure in, we get red foxes all the time but never yet have any of ours killed by a fox. Tg
If you look that foxes belly was full to bursting. If it wasent it would be full of fresh chicken. Full fox = fox lulling chickens into false sense of security.
I doubt any of these ''animal lovers'' know how much damage this fox can do. It would slaughter every chicken here for sure if there wasn't anyone around. Yea it has to eat, but farmer is not there to feed it, it's basically taking his food away. For a chicken to hatch an egg it has to be around 6-9 months old. Now imagine you grow something that long, spend your money and time and this pest comes and just takes it away, and many times it doesn't even eat it. So someone to come and comments you to leave it alone is just stupid and arrogant as far as I am concerned.
it is quite true that foxes will slaughter more than one or two, but this is because they stash food in times of plenty (as they see it). This is natural behaviour and enables foxes (as well as some other animals), to survive in hard times.
Ok we get it, the Fox has to eat but u don’t have to be offensive towards the animal lovers... I am an animal loves and I don’t want he fox to be killed and I know just how much damage that Fox could cause. But there’s always a better solution than to kill the Fox. P.S ur stupid, not the comments
100% agree with you. That fox has plenty of habitat to hunt in. The chickens are simply easy fun. Beyond that fact, foxes are known carriers of rabies, and foxes shouldn't be allowed to get accustomed to humans for that reason. Drive foxes away, keep them wild and alive, don't encourage foxes to be comfortable around humans. Too many people feed them right on their porches where their own pets eat.
I think you tamed your chickens to much the chickens where just sitting there and normally the rooster would have alarmed the hens and jump up in a bush or tree for cover just the way they would have in the wild. your rooster didnt .so all the fox needed to do if you weren't there was snatch them and away and i vise you too close your chickens in for a few days. now that fox knows where your hens are he will come back at dusk so just pre warning you keep them in a pen or they get eaten by a fox and this is advice for people who have chicken dont tame them to much
These folks probably aren't allowed to own firearms, unlike the fortunate people of the United States! We would have ended that problem quickly, as I see all the comments about .22's on here!
haha if i erected a fox proof fence round my land i think hippies like you would have something to say about it... it would also cost hundreds of thousands of pounds
That is a pregnant female just trying to survive and you people put out food and then complain when the animal does what comes naturally to it. You need better livestock management.
WinterSnowfox YT So if you have raised chickens from chicks, took care of them, fed them every single day you would just let a fox eat them? First, these people need to keep their chickens safe by keeping them in an enclosure. If they free range, that is fine as long as they keep an eye on them during the day.....That fox will definately be back for easy food...Second, if that fox was stalking my chickens like that, I would not have hesitated to put one through it's head. Once they find food like that they will always return. I do hate to kill ANy animal, but you also need to protect your investment AND food source
Best thing to do is shoot one, hang the tail uncured at your properties edge and then hand the foxes head on a low pole within 50 feet of your chicken run, you will never have another fox problem for years to come as long as you leave it there to sun dry and warn any foxes of their destiny should they try to snatch a hen.
Disagree here, birds of prey are also fair game. Illegal as it may be (if your caught). But who is to say if you dump the body on a busy highway at night AND it is ran over multiple times (there go's any evidence). Just saying............
ive seen too many lambs and chickens torn appart, some not even eaten. i think a fox getting a bullet in the head is far better than seeing lambs torn to shreds by a fox. foxes have to be controlled by farmers in the same way a shopkeeper may kill rats (for example).
+Kabuki Kitsune i think you need to actually read up on foxes. you seem to know nothing about them ifyou think foxes are smaller than lambs or chickens! ive seen foxes kill lambs and chickens with my own eyes plenty of times. oh, and we dont get cyotes in the UK.....haha!
+Kabuki Kitsune haha certified by who? keeping a fox doesn't make you an expert (just like it doesn't make people who own dogs experts). Im afraid i most certainly do not recognise you as any type of expert or "educator" as any 5-year-old could tell you that foxes kill chickens and lambs. infact, the very first fox i shot had a very large cockerel in his mouth at the time.
+Kabuki Kitsune i dont think they read your 'resume' thoroughly!😁 My best advice for you (as a countryside ranger and farmer) is to go and google "red fox" (the species in this video) before you make even more of a fool of yourself...
You know lambs die from malnutrition & Hypothermia so all the fox is doing is coming & removing the already dead carcass & cache it & eat later to date, Spread your bs propaganda elsewhere. You know nothing about Foxes.
phil stew Is that what you resolves to telling someone to hang themselves? As the quote Goes, You know you have lost the argument when you resolve to insults. Good day, I actually nurse injured wildlife back to good health in our local wildlife rescue so think again, Bloody farmers & yes they do, look after your poor bloody animals instead of leaving them in such freezing climates
Actually,if you fired warning shots from a 22 into the ground around him,or a pellet gun in the ass,that fox would learn quick,why kill him?he controls rodents around the homestead.
Fleece Johnson No .. coz asking someone why they didn't do your dirty work is dumb!... if you wanna do shit like that..(keep it to yourself) but don't be the big man and shout out something only cowards are known for... small man.
Your terms defending sounds innocent (as that is how you should perceive it) The fox didn't get too close to the chickens.. as the dog was there.. If it had caught the chicken or even got near to catching it? Then you should fire a bullet in the air to scare it away.. If you find it has already caught and killed your chicken? Then is it rightful for you to consider to take it upon yourself to justify the death and loss of your stock. If you do not play fair to the simplest actions in your life? Then life will not fair with you... It is also a good feeling to have made a justifiable decision (as it feeds positivity within you) .. It is the best medicine in the world to have.. and that is consideration and kindness in your judgement (when you know clearly that you have the power to take another life) you play god for that moment... and godliness feeds the man and makes him that more wiser.
Fox pretending like he's searching for something else to put the chicks a ease but when he gets close enough....
And that is y he is called the fox incredibly sneaky right
A casual hello, acting nonchalant.
@@crystalo3550 Swiper lost his chance to get a Popeyes dinner.
It's* it*
This cunning fox pretends he's not interested in chickens. The carpenter knows the fox game.
it's like chasing away a junkie from a KFC
The fox just wants a good night's sleep he just wants to shut the Cockerell up
1:49 Fox: Sorry, ladies, I have lost my key somewhere in the grass here. Can you help me , please?

Fox has got to eat just like us.
ben jarmin Just not my chickens. Then again I take preventive measures to ensure this doesn't happen.
Maybe you should buy chickens and have foxes kill them...

Bloody redcoats cunning as. I would have blown it away but film is educational I guess.
I love that garden
You can’t believe he comes in the middle of the day? Hunger doesn’t only happen at night.
He'll be back, you can count on that.
He obviously was not hungry or no cubs. They never rush to kill . They do it in their own time.

Do you still have any of those chickens? I wouldn't imagine he would have forgotten about them!

it wants to eat the chicken just like us

During the day time I think the chicken will try to escape no problems

Yeh this couple are dumbfoocks lmao
This fox was raised in a buddhist temple, so its a 100% vegan 🥬 🥬 🥬

Where is the donkey or great Pyrenees dog?
jaws music plays when fox walks past
1:30 looked like a pretty clean shot to me.
Don't understand the strategy. You cannot spend 24/7 guarding the chickens.
thats some dank memes
If you look that foxes belly was full to bursting. If it wasent it would be full of fresh chicken. Full fox = fox lulling chickens into false sense of security.
I think hes looking for eggs... probably found them before. Think you need to be taking better care of your hens! Foxes are smart and opportunists.
I'm glad you scared him off, like the man said he would rather have found a mouse,mole or something other than your chickens.
don't have chickens if you aren't going to bother defending them
ITS FREAKIN NATURE
People that has their animals being attacked by predators can be given rights to kill them.
FireFloyd ZD ....so doing its natural instincts, makes it deserve to die
It's a shame cos foxes are a beautiful looking Animal :)
But they still can be killed if we have the right.

why all of you want to kill the fox, she just wants to eat
Humans need to eat too.
Ovidu Acantinca those chickens should be their food not the Fox's he needs to learn his place

WinterSnowfox YT

Why don't u chase the fox away

humans bought the chickens and put them in the garden. without humans this would just be a fox in a garden.
