Hi everybody, this is very frustrating to write... so 6 days ago I found a quail eaten by something in my aviary. The only thing left was the heart, chest cracked open and emptied. I’ve never had any problems with predators so this is a first for me... since this spring I have lots of rats going around my yard which I tried to kill with poison. They get the bait, but I can’t seem to kill them all, they just keep coming back! They have since killed two more quails, while I tried to plug all the holes they made in the plywood they just don’t care, they’re always finding a way in... they seem to kill one every 2 days, and just one, they don’t touch the others which is what makes me think of rats because weasels or other animals would just get them all at once... I’m gonna try and flood the rats’ channels with water to see if I can drown them but idk if that’s the best thing to do... help!
