Well, I'd hate to part w/ any of my boys, but I was thinking I may have to suck it up and figure out how to kill a few - sniffle, sniffle -
DH was thinking he may have to remodel our coop REAL soon (NOT that he needs another project, right?). I say, just quickly build me my HUGE coop! hahahahaha!
Glad I've done my best! He's gonna be spoiled too! Wait 'til morning!
Thanks!

hehe I think I finally found the recipe that will MAKE me finally organize the fridge. I've been looking for a reason, and *blam-o* there's the recipe! Thanks a bunch chel. LoL

el, we always end up with a bunch of roosters given to us. And they are so cool looking, we just cant cull 'em, so we had to totally and spontaneously make room for our boys. lol We ended up going to Tractor supply and buying those real big dog pens, and fit them in our front yard. We are able to start having specific breeds per pen now, so it's worth seperating instead of rehoming. Today while checking out the chicks we have out front, we noticed a couple rather awesome looking birds. hehe I like the wild lookers....

Hi all! Finally coming down from the Christmas craziness! Love the animaguri critters! Sooo cute!

Went to Wally World and Target tonight to hit the 50% sales... Got lots of gift wrappy things and some decorations for the front yard for next year! Saved a bundle.

Been scouting out Crochet for Dummies on YouTube. Gotta get started with learning how to do it now that Santa brought me the stuff!!

OK, enuf for now! Hope you all sleep tight!

Hey SE, Ive got mice under one of my coops and Id like to poison the litte crappers, but Im worried about my chickens eating the dead mice and getting secondary poisoning. Have you had any worries about that while using the Decon for the rats?
Do they mostly die down in their nests or do you find a lot of them in the coop or pen?

Thanks,

Well it is really a sad thing to be so excited about dead rats but hey, I love that this stuff is finally working and I am embarrassed to say that over the past few weeks, with the Decon RAT & Mice pellets..only that, not the MICE and rat, that I have either buried or flipped under the shed at least 40 BIG fat rats!!! This is graphic so skip if you are weak stomached...they apparently gobble up the pellets, they are blue so you can see them gone the next day and then it is about a 4 day process to start seeing them everywhere..I have no idea why they crawl out from under the shed and die, amybe they are heading to my pond but only one made it even close, they die and often have blood around their bottom parts so they obviously do bleed internally to death. Ususally at the 4 day mark after putting out the pellets I will see a handful of dead ones but still I can't kill them all as there are new tracks in my pen every single morning..I must have had millions of them!!! "Ben" and his buddies! I have another box in the shed, I am now buying it two at a time in the 4 packs and putting ALL of the 4 packs out..one I open and sprinkle the pellets behind my pen and the others I crack open and shove under the shed. One morning last week I freaked when I turned the light on in the pen and let the chickens down..there was a honkin big rat in the pen, I turned to get the rack to get him out and he ran out through the corner tunnel he had made, the chickens had looked at him but ignored him, he was dying I think. I haven't had a problem yet with them eating or pecking one but seems the rats are not dying in the pen either. Remember that there are two boxes of the Decon and I wasted alot of money on the wrong one..one says MICE & rat and apparently it isn't every strong, the one you want says RAT and Mice and even Walmart carried it for about 6 bucks a 4 pack..good luck!!!

The oreo stuff sounds yummy and the orange barred rock is awesome and the critters are soooo cute!! I have a bunch of posts to read to catch up here!!
