Why did mr fox not take much from buence store house

Mr. Fox carefully selected what they would take while the other animals drooled with hunger. He chose a bit of each type of meat. One of the Small Foxes reminded him that some of the animals may only eat vegetables and suggested that they also take some carrots. Finally, they stole some push-carts to transport their spoils. Mr. Fox sent two of the Small Foxes back to Mrs. Fox with the loot and asked that they inform her about all the guests coming to the feast.
