Fox

I was coming up Elm from 17th this morning about 8am.  I saw a fox trot across Elm and head, in business like fashion, up the steps and down the garden path to the coop.  When he elegantly leapt over the fence into the run, I sprinted up the steps, heard the chickens, and saw the fox already halfway across the field looking at me.

So, good for us, the coop itself is safe.  But, be aware that it is certainly on the map for our neighborhood wildlife.  Locks and regular 'integrity' checks are important.

  1. Nice! I guess that answers our questions about the safety features thus far working!

  2. Wow! I let them out just before this and they were in the run while I was putting food out, etc. Glad he wasn't bold enough to come in then!
