Chickens?

... though they reckoned last week that the fledglings can do with some help. I am the same, will start proper feeding after Autumn.

 

 

 

I've never read up on the myths surrounding the 10ft thing and rats - so guess what I've just been doing !

I reckon the 10ft thing is in specific cases, centre of the take away areas in town, farm animal food stores, docks, but generally your house or mine, they are far far away (more than 10ft anyway). Chicken runs - I reckon they pass by at night but arn't sitting waiting about 10ft away during the day. Made me think though, brought one of the trail cams in last night for a look and a charge, got birds, insects, deers, a couple of squirrels but no rats passing by - never seen rats on them either.. so all in, I am more clever today than I was yesterday, but 10ft from a rat is a bit of a myth
