I was watching my chickens in the garden and I noticed one of them running and the others chasing her when I took a close look at what she had it was a mouse dead I guess she did it I got the mouse away from her a thew it away. She followed me all the way to the trash can want nothing more than to eat it. Is there any risk to them eating mice I have never seen them in ther feed or coop but with the grasshoppers that are eating garden I have been putting them in there to help with the grasshoppers but if they found one mouse I'm sure there is more.
