Well, this is a first for me in my life. I saw a live , wild, disgusting rat. I went to lock up my chickens tonite, and there it was , scattering, clambering up the chicken run and out to its escape. I am thoroughly disgusted, concerned and sick that I now have to contend with this.
I have youngsters I was hoping to move down to the coop soon, as well, I have two broody's set up in that coop. It's a fairly solid coop, I don't know if there is a hole big enough for the rats to get inside. But, they are in the run, thus, rat crap and urine in the run. How do I sanitize that now.
I live on Vancouver Island, I used to live in ALberta, which was rat free.
I don't know what to do next.
