    Opossum Attack - had chicken by the head! Let her be or examine and treat?

    So how is she doing? Hoping for good results. Your husband should post ideas for how to bait and kill and not let it get to th e chickens? Mine is still scared of everything and mostly blind in the one eye, but she's alive and gaining weight. Not laying yet though and her sister is.

    Troppo Chick - so glad you saved yours too! Was it a big rat or that's a small chick? It's good to know the rats will do this because I do have bantams too.
