Well we have our first rat and I haven't managed to catch it yet. I have never cleaned my eggs just brushed them off and put them in the fridge. I am totally grossed out by the thought of the rat in the coop and that it could potentially touch my eggs!! Should I start cleaning the eggs. It seems...
We have been having problems with squirrels too. So far my partner is just shooting them. We haven't set traps or anything yet. They are driving us crazy too!
My spouse and I own a brewery and we always have a lot of spent grain from brewing beer. Can the chickens have some of the spent grain and hops to eat? Thanks for any info!
