4th Annual BYC NYD Hatch-a-long

[TMNfarm]

I took a cat into the layer pen with me a few nights ago where I have a mouse problem. I know there are mice under the one nest so I lifted it up for her. She got the sucker and then ran out showing me the mouse. She followed me around for 15 minutes just dropping the darn thing in front of me. Last night I took her in with me and I didn't need to show her where to go. The problem is I couldn't get her to come out. Finally I looked and she had 7 mice laying all lined up next to each other. I through the mice in a pail and carried her and the pail out and left her be. She insisted on showing me her catch again. I hope she wasn't wanting to share her feast with me.

Nothing better than a few good mousers to keep those buggers away!!!

Nothing like a good mouser much better for everyone then poisons and stuff . Make a fuss of her bringing and showing them and that should be enough for her lol . Maybe she will come with you every night for lock down or whatever

Roads are still really bad here. We just watched three cars wreck, so I went outand shoveled two out while a guy in a small plow truck pulled the third out. Then he came and helped me push one out, then I stopped traffic to let him and another guy push the last one out. For some reason, when trying to push vehicles out, others are too darned stupid to stop, they just drive right around. We almost had yet another accident becuase of this. Geez some people irritate me. Are they really in that much of a hurry to get into an accident?!

curious to know how the bator works for you. I know it doesnt work well with waterfowl at all. But if it does with chicken eggs
