Proud of my best boy Tiki who fought off a fox this morning

Fox grabbed one of the girls, Tiki slammed him and made him drop the hen, and I made it outside in time to chase the fox off. He’s been staring off in the direction the fox left in for the last couple hours. Hen only lost a handful of feathers and is fine. Tiki got lots of mealworms, which he 99% shared with all the girls because he’s just that guy.

Unfortunately it may be back as it has a den about 1/2 mile away, but I’ll be keeping everyone locked up for a bit unless I’m outside with them. The fox bailed immediately when it saw me, so I’m hoping it was just out and about in the early morning hours and won’t be bold enough to try anything when people are around.
