WELL....I finallly saw what has been getting in my coop ..
A RAT ! suspected that it was one ...
Last night I went to check the coops were all closed at 12:00am ...
And I saw it ...the cat spent the night in the coop ..
no rat caught yet ...I think I might go out and get a rat trap..GRRRRR !
I set two traps last night using peanut butter and store bought bait, but caught nothing. Nothing went for the bait. I've seen mice but not rats. I've also seen disturbed soil in the yard but this was a much bigger patch and inside the run.
I have been leaving dishes of food on the ground but will be picking them up from now on. I have got to figure out something.
I've been dealing with some ground hornets that built a nest under the newspapers where the rhubarb is. I've gotten stung a few times and hurting. Also itching where I got stung.
