Fox Predator Problem, Any tips out to get rid of the fox?

[Blue Andalusian]

Silkies are the most vulnerable chicken breed imaginable. Their survival instincts are completely eradicated and they can't see anything. I have free-range chickens that sleep in trees and an active fox den here, but my chickens are all camoflaged game mutts. Any silkie would be doomed

Thanks for the Heads up. we were going considering hatching Silkies in Spring. But my mom told me we should stay away from the Silkies for Now ^^

So ... basically you are using your roosters as bait to continue luring foxes and other predators onto your property. This is not a good plan.

Also. As for this, We weren't really using the Roosters for bait (at least me, but my brother and dad were). Anyway, We (or I) just wanted the Roosters not to Bug the Hens in the coop and start a Ruckus, as we had like 5, 6 or 7 roosters at that time

I mean, maybe it wasn't your intention, but it's what was happening. I'm glad the situation has been resolved. We realize you can't fix all the problems at once, time and finances are always factors, but we did want to give you some ideas on what to work on. Some will say if you eradicate one predator, another will just move in to take its place, so it's best to try to solve the problem by tightening your protections instead, if you can. Good luck to you.
