Today a polite red fox came to visit my garden and admire my ducks, turkeys, and chickens..
It was a good thing I was there to scare the fox away. This is the first fox visit I have ever had with this new spring clutch. My fence is really short that even my turkeys jump out of it often, which means it’s no problem for the fox.
It’s impossible to mask the scent of 10 chickens, 4 turkeys, and 4 ducks, so is there any other way to keep these foxes away during the day time? My birds go to a secure coop at night and I open them to roam in my yard in the morning.
I’ve been looking online for an electric fence, and it seems to work well. Do you guys have any experience with them? Will foxes find a way to get past electric netting?
If that doesn’t work then should I get a solar animal repellent (flashes lights and makes sounds when it detects movements) or will the fox get past that?
Please let me know, my fat pekins have no chance against the fox.
