Fox Trap?

[Hunter4ever 0]

I'm wanting to buy a fox trap that killed 10 of my chickens a few weeks ago (Dad hasn't done anything about it, the lay bugger, so today I'm putting my foot down.)

 

I will be shooting the bugger through the cage, so anyone got any ideas?

It has to be in england.

 

Here is something I'm hoping for, is it good enough?

Thank you.

 

I suspect it's a vixen with cubs, so if I catch her, I may go after 'em.

 

Not likely though.

thats a cheap trap, but its also very small.

 

i got mine from ratbait.com bigger and very strong but about odd quid plus vat.

it looks sound to me mate but it might be a bit small though it might not want to go in if its a bit of a squeeze. you could always make one.

i saw one of those traps up close a few weeks back i don,t think they will hold an adult fox , fer too weakly built

it's small and stuff, but I want something cheap, no more than £50.

Like kingkeeper21 said you could always attempt at making a trap. Or just snare the wee b*****d.

I would, but I have cats, and don't want to snare them by accident

They must be some tall cats. Setting your snares at the recomended height would avoid any such accident.

you only get what you pay for, I'd suggest wait and save up for a better one (bigger) why pay out on something not big enough to do the job, money wasted, also, if your worried about your cats getting caught it snares, be prepared to have a cat in a fox trap every night

my trap, although rusty, does the job on urban foxes, and thats only around 5ft

wow just had a look and all the traps are very cheap

fenn traps £5.99 each nice might use them

[Holdaway 2]

They are not Fenn traps, they are Fen traps. Chinese shite. Get the real thing from JohnB on here.

I have a few home made traps out at some farms and all working well, then last week i lost my chooks to a fox so i set this small trap, i bought it from a farmer for twenty quid its the first time its caught anything and it had to be a baby.
