The mice have so much to eat since the bunnies throw stuff on the ground so far they have not gotten into the feed bags in the barn. But the ones in the garage did get into the sunflower seed. I have not been able to find a free freezer locally. I plan to build a wooden box or 2 and tack metal on the outside. When i get time.I don't have an easy way to store extra. Thinking about finding an old chest freezer to keep it in, but the there's the issue of where to keep the ugly old freezer.
There's always something around here for them to eat if it comes to that... the serama's grower crumbles, oats, wild birdseed, BOSS, grass/grubs/bugs, cat food, and leftovers from the fridge. The mob won't starve, they'll just make you think they are.
