We have lots of foxes in our neighbourhood, who have recently taken to coming around and scaring our hens. They'd probably like to do far worse to the hens, but haven't yet managed (largely due to the big fence we put in, but there's always a chance they could dig underneath).
Does anyone know of any effective deterrents to stop them from sniffing around? We're in a suburb, so any deterrents shouldn't have a negative impact on neighbours' dogs and cats. Any help would be appreciate, esp. as my other half is talking of investing in an air rifle.
