Ants!

[slushey51]

Hi everyone,

My coop has recently been occupied by ants. The ants have also got into the feeder, which is filled with feed. My birs are almost 5 weeks old and are planned to go out wednesday.

What should I do? Do they eat ants? Should I dump all the food?

Some chickens eat some ants. i've had small chicks killed by multiple ant bites. I'd get the ants out of the coop before I put the chicks in it.
