    How much to get rid of rats/mice?

    Quote: We don't have mice/rats in the house but I was told that there is an access to the cross base. They found some activities there. They told me if I don't do something the rats/mice will climb along the pipe and come into the house. I am really confused.

    Please help, my 7-week old chick can't stand on her foot

    She can't stand on one of her foot. The whole part under the knee is on the ground if she has to walk. We found a tiny cut on that foot but I don't think that hurts so much. Is she suffering from perosis, or spraddle leg, which is normal to new born chicks. What I can do with her? Any suggestion...

    Somethink broke into our fully netted chicken yard this afternoon when we were not home and three of our four 5-week old chicks are missing. What we can do with the one we still have?
