Oh Donnah what a shame. Your cockrell was a handsome boy. I went down our garden one morning and and found someone's ginger bunnie left to amuse 4 cubs under our garden shed. I felt sorry for the owner. Foxes really are rather naughty. Before that it was a large dead rat head pushed head first in the flower bed. That was for an earlier group of cubs to practice on.

Oh how horrible... I know it is nature and we have to accept but when you have cared for something it is never easy.

So sorry Donnah, such lovely chucks and rooster, what a shame.
One had our pet rabbit a few years ago, made her a run attached to hutch, as didn't like to keep her cooped up, got up one morning and all the chicken wire was ripped off the top of the run, and it was well nailed on, just some muddy footprints at first thought it was a dog, till a few days later when this cheeky fox was stood on patio watching us through the window, a pair of them visit quite often now to drink from the pond and have heard the vixen calling her cubs at night sometimes too,quite a freaky sound.

If the chickens had gone into the hen house like they should the fox could not get at them. He stands no chance getting into the avairy as it is double wired underneath so is the hen house

I'm so sorry its heartbreaking when you've cared for an animal/bird and then that happens - my friend lost all her rabbits - came down in the morning to find fur everywhere - just senseless. Lots of hugs xxx
