It was OC's (Other Chap's) turn to do the allotment today, and DH got a phone call and went straight away to assess he damage and to see what had happened to the chooks.
They damaged a fence to get on to the allotment land. They pulled out the wiring for the electric fence, ripped off the the door to the chicken shed and then, finding it was a shed with chickens roosting, they ripped off the door (next door to the shed) which actually gives them access to the plot.
They attempted to steal the solar panels, took the camera, and then tried to get in to the storage shed.
They failed. It would have been a disappointment anyway.
Luckily, all the chickens were accounted for. We were relieved that none of the chickens were stolen, and were lucky that no fox took advantage of the lack of electric fence and lack of door to the shed.
It took several hours today for the two chaps to do enough repairs to secure the chickens (from four legged predators).
Scum.
