I'd guess that if you keep them fat & happy with table scraps you're less likely to have them chasing your chickens.

We've had one of the smaller ones come in the past two nights. I managed to take some more pics and also a couple videos last night. I'll get them posted as soon as I can get the uploaded!

Haven't seen the adults lately. We're thinking maybe they take turns coming in and we just haven't seen the adults. Funny thing was when I was out taking pics/video, the chickens decided to come free range nearby which spooked the fox and he took off. Chicken...

That's great used to love trapping them but haven't seen one in 16 years. Started trapping more coyotes about the same time we started seeing less greys. Hope they make a comeback.

I've shot many a red fox in my day, but have only seen one gray fox in my life (it's mounted in my hunting room, along with a red.) Nowadays, it's a rare treat to see a fox in my rural area, so I let them walk when I see them. We've got a red fox that comes up on our front porch to eat cat food very late at night a couple of times a week. Years ago, I would have busted it good, but not anymore.

Coyotes, on the other hand, are dead anytime I catch one in range.

what he said, foxes are cool

Those are some cool pics!
There aren't many of those left around these parts.
I caught 1 back in about 1988 or 89 and I haven't caugt another to this date.

I catch 1 red fox to about every 10 or 12 coyotes but 0 grey
