Topic: What do the Foxes Eat

[supernan]

I have lots of foxes. Poo everywhere, dog in it daily!!!!

That's when he is not in the cow poo I am spearding at the moment. So stinky site here!!

Foxes will eat fruit, especially plums,. How do I know, plum stones in the poo stuck to the dog. Oh hum off to the bath again.

Parrakeets like the warmth of towns, and can do well here (as you've noticed) with global warming, but there have been a few about for generations. They're omnivorous, adaptable, and have a long breeding season, so they multiply like pigeons when conditions are right.

I know we have foxes on our site, they particularly seem to like my plot, as I have lots of droppings (black). So far I have not had any damage but I have not grown any parsnips yet as it is a new (to me) plot.

If they are black and tarry and located in a relatively small area, it may well be a badger latrine. Badgers are far more likely to do damage and eat vegetables on a plot than a fox. 8)

Fox poo is like a small dog's.

we have a resident fox - they eat mostly worms and slugs and that.
the other night he dug under someone's compost bin and out the other side - i suspect he had a good cacth of worms that way :)

not a problem on the site though - he is quite shy and well behaved.
(the compost bin was on a semi-derelict site)
