A fox came last night. Lucky I am a light sleeper or things could have been worse. He got 8 chicks and nearly had Ertha when I came flying across the yard in my nighty carrying my shoes and followed closely by the dog. The dog chased him right along Charles St, which is a fairly busy shopping Street during the day. Poor Ertha with her 1 chick are walking around very shell shocked this morning. The whole hen yard is subdued.
My lovely husband is going to fox proof the back fence this morning and then we'll put in some permanent broody coops.
