We also get rats occasionally in the compost and the kookaburras deal with them. We also get cane toads in the compost but I deal with them myself because of the poison glands they have.

The hens are housed next to a Hawk as well (they can't see each other) so I think it offers the hens some protection from them.<br />Your hens look lovely and clean - I've never heard of Aubiose straw, is Lindachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307042289297886569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272014660849023022.post-34215934722342419662013-01-03T09:42:27.328+00:002013-01-03T09:42:27.328+00:00Very well done Tabitha!

We removed all the fresh compost and put it on top of another bin with finished compost. Then watered around that bin with dilute disinfectant. The now empty bin which it had been visiting, had rat poison put inside. It has stopped visiting but don't know if it has died or lost interestDchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02490191919855219024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272014660849023022.post-1774854930939704782013-01-03T00:59:45.426+00:002013-01-03T00:59:45.426+00:00Cats are so contrite.
