I would love some advice from all you experienced chicken keepers. I really want to start keeping chickens, but I have been holding back from taking the plunge. We have a good sized suburban garden, but we often see foxes there. Should I invest in lots of fox proofing, or would the frequent presence of foxes be so upsetting to the chickens that it would be unkind to keep them at all?
If I do decide to go ahead, what is the best sort of fox-proofing I should go for? The eglu cube, even though expensive seems to be one of the most fox proof sheds and runs, but would anyone suggest anything else?
Many thanks for your advice!
