The girls just made a lot of noise, which they usually do after laying. When I went out to them, there was a squirrel being chased by the girls, they did manage to get a few pecks in when it missed it's grip and landed in the little shrub in there
and got out again before I got in. The girls were none the worse for it and happily tucked into their mixed corn I'd bought them. I don't think it will try that again, but being new to chicken keeping, what are the dangers involved with the squirrel getting in there? Will it be after the eggs/food? do they carry anything the girls might catch? I know they are rodents, will they hurt/attack the girls?
Thanks in advance
