mouse

Hi, it’s me again. Sorry I just need to know, yes or no? A maybe is fine too, thanks for the help on my last post! And it was 4 mos since her last kid. One side is hard while the other isn’t, wasn’t like that before.

My Cream Legbar, Lily caught a mouse. I noticed because of the chase. I knew she had something. I ran out & sure enough it was an adult field mouse. I intervened, because I read and most likely here. That a chicken got a mouse and because of the chase she swallowed it whole and died. 😳 I hope I...

Hey everyone! We have over 300 chickens and last year we suddenly had an explosion of mice. My wife is not crazy about cats, so we tried EVERYTHING to get away with them and seriously, nothing really helped! We had even called terminex to get rid of them. At the end we just went for just 4 cats...

Today I got a call for help from a family member who had found a baby mouse during a storm, she left it out overnight in a sheltered area hoping mum would come get him- she did not. In the morning my aunt put him in a little tub in the shed, and put a blanket in with him and some veg. After...

These mice have been in my shed for several months now! I'm getting chicks sometime in February so the squeakers need to leave!!! I have three good mousing cats, but the cats can't fit under the chicken shed, where I suspect there are several mouse nests. Last week I cleaned out the shed, and...

Does anybody else love rodents!? I currently have one elderly pet gerbil and a few colonies of mice! An angora mouse testing out the new photoshoot box.

I have auto feeders and waterers so i am sure as long as i have access to food and water they have no reason to leave. I have tried rat traps(both mechanical and electric) and also even built a barrel trap. I have gotten a few but i am still seeing rat poo in the nest boxes. I have also tried...

Mice in my chicken coop. Have taken preventative steps , but they are in anyway...now with fall upon us (I live in Michigan, they are there to stay) Any suggestions for ridding these pests? I have 10 adult chickens, 6 week old chicks. No rats, just mice (poison killing has always made me nervous...

The last few days I've caught about a dozen mice in a spring loaded mouse trap (the kind that kills them). Somehow they're getting into the pantry at night. I have been flushing them down the toilet, but couldn't I just feed them to my chickens? We don't us any poisions, but I don't know what...

Hi all, I'm a newbie... ordered chicks before the coop is done, oops. We have 5 chicks arriving in either one week or two - waiting on the feed store to confirm when they are coming. The plan is to brood them in the house for the first week (so I can keep a close eye on them), and then move to...

We lost our Americana hen last night. We thought she got locked out of the coop last night & froze. Poor girl. It was about -20 with the windchill. Tonight my son found a Silver Wyandotte dead. She wasn't frozen yet. Now we're thinking the first one died & he just didnt see her when he locked...

I downloaded a new app for my chicks

I had suspected my one of my hens was eating my eggs and I started isolating my hens to determine which one was responsible. Long story short. I visually spotted mice eating my eggs. I found a very effective way to catch the mice, without harming hens and I caught them (3) within 24 hours. Here...
