    Animal killed my chickens!!! Don’t know what it is

    Yes I did try this last night and nothing got in. But two nights ago I also put meet in the run and something did get in and eat it. It might have been a mouse or rat but I’m not sure.

    Hens rolling eggs out of nesting boxes

    Hey, I have 14 hens who all lay brown eggs and one hen who lays white eggs. My hens have been taking the white eggs out of the nesting boxes. Does anyone know why they would do this? Last year my hens went broody during this time, do you think they’re getting ready to go broody again? Help please!
