What nice man????? What is the bait??? We have been looking for something like that for a long time...always worry about the chickens pecking at dead rats...
We called in a pest control guy cause we thought we had a possum.
And he didnt tell us... sorry :p
My house has picked up a couple of interlopers (rats found their way into our ceiling). The nice man added some fancy rat bait that wont damage an animal that eats the rats (he knows we have hens).
Now I just cant decided if I want the hens to get that extra protein, or if I'm too squeamish...
WORMS!!!
can you believe it, they will not eat worms. I dug over some ground, millions of worms. The hens looked at it, scratched once or twice, and settled down for a dust bath.
All the work and they turned their beak up at them
Carrot and Carrot peelings. Cucumber and Cucumber peelings. and those are our main vege scraps.
Although, I gave them a bowl of avacado, yum yum apparently
