Not so sly now
One fox down. 18 to go if we’re to make it all even. Unfortunately, in the process one chicken (Minty) was seriously injured and might not make it, and Icky got a minor leg injury during the melee (either puncture wounds in leg from running through heavy brush, or possibly a ricocheting shotgun pellet (he wasn’t anywhere near the action at the time, and the vet didn’t think this was the case). I hope it’s the same fox that got Beardo a couple of weeks ago. We know there must be more as this one was a rather small female and we’ve seen a larger male around. Notice the chicken feathers in her mouth. Normally I’d feel bad, but not when they’re eating our pets. Poor pee. I was not even home and within a few minutes he had shot his first fox, had to put an injured chicken into the barn, and rush Icky to the vet (he’s fine btw, just a small skin injury and is all bandaged up).
P.S. He used my .22/.410 rifle/shotgun combo…shotgun stopped it, .22 finished, one more .22 to ensure.
