Rats taking down chickens. That is crazy. Those must be some huge rats! I only have tiny chipmunks that my chickens could take out, but chose to ignore.
I am having a bad chicken week. My pullet with the dislocated hip who has been in isolation for 6 weeks and was starting to walk a bit with a limp, seems to have given up. She weighs nothing, lays there all day, I've had to bathe her twice, and when I take her out, she doesnt even stand and try and walk anymore. I'm so sad, but I think I have to let her go. My other pullet who was healthy on Sunday night and has some sort of nerve damage suddenly- isnt getting better...and is also not eating or drinking, so I will have my husband take care of them both tomorrow. What a [email protected] week.
