Suggestions for 2 Olde Mill Lane
Hi, I just bought Cottage Living and saw this property and am wondering how others started and played it? Thanks!

Wild foxes can be super annoying. When my sims first moved to that lot they were very new sims in a very new game, so money was tight and they didn't have much in the way of skills. Foxes killed their chickens and the wild bunnies far more than I liked.
The wild bunnies can be befriended and then they will help with gardening by weeding plants. When foxes kill them, any sim who had made friends with them gets a sad moodlet AND the bunny is no longer around to help with gardening....so it was sometimes frustrating. You can make friends with wild foxes though, and then convince them to leave your lot alone. I didn't do that...because it's time consuming, and mean ol' foxes killing my chickens and bunnies didn't seem like someone I wanted as a friend.
Eventually my sim got high enough handiness and the parts needed to install fox-be-gone alarms on the chicken coops. After that they were much less of a problem. The sim who lives there now also has a very large dog, and dogs will chase off foxes sometimes too.
The foxes are super cute, btw. The gameplay around them can just be annoying is all. Which was fine with me, as it would not be worth calling a lot challenge if it didn't have a downside.
