NightsinWhiteSilkies - that's a really good question. My mouse problem is increasing dramatically - the coop is covered with mouse droppings, and I am starting to get frantic. But....now that I think about it, I am not sure they are really a problem. My feed stores are kept in steel cans, they come into the coop for the current chickent feeder, and they can't get in it, they just eat from the same area the hens do. Perhaps the issue is me....
I have, however, just purchased an outdoor feeder, and will be moving the food from the coop to the run to encourage the mice to stay the heck out of my coop. The hens free range all day/
