Hi all! We took the plunge and have two chickens (with 2 more arriving later this week). We have had them for about a day and I’ve already spotted a mouse/rat in the flower bed. I am sort of freaking out!!! The chickens are adorable and the kids love them but that was fast! I have since bought a metal bin with bungees to secure the lid and a treadle feeder. Am I missing anything else? We live semi-rurally and haven’t had a problem since we moved in just over a year ago. Thank you!
