Hey stupid it's not oats, chickens do not eat oats. It's chicken feed.

Take the chicken over. Come back and get the fox. Bring back the chicken, pick up the chicken feed and bring it over, come back and get the chicken.

He takes the chicken first. He comes back and gets the fox. He crosses the lake again, drops off the fox and brings back the chicken. He leaves the chicken on the original side and takes the oats over (leaving the fox and oats on the other side of the lake). He comes back by himself and gets the chicken. Once they cross the group is reunited.

---

take the chicken first
then take the fox, when returning to the original place take the chicken back with u and leave the chicken there and then take the oats.

Put the oats with the fox. then go back and get the chicken (again!). Then it will all b okay!!

then goes and fetches the chicken . jobs a good un.

The fox wont eat oats, fox will only eat the chicken. So he can take the oats and the fox one at a time and get the chicken last.

Hahaha this was on RuneScape little liar:P

I forgot because this was a member quest and I am not a member anymore, but I will try.

pick up the Chicken first. This leaves the Fox and Grain, and the Fox will not eat the Grain.Drop the Chicken on the other side of the bridge (or lake thing) and go back over.

Go back and take the Grain over, and pick the Chicken back up.

Take it back to the start, drop it and pick up the Fox. Take the Fox over, drop it and go back for the Chicken.

Take it and bring the Chicken to the end
