Boyfriend likes to join me every morning when I feed the chickens, to "help"
me. Suddenly there was a little skirmish near one of the huts. Then BF took
off up the path towards the house and I could tell he had caught something
and had it in his mouth.

He took it into the kitchen to show me. A young rat. He didn't want to eat
it, just to show off about it. I praised him to the skies and put the rat
in the trash bin. Yay, BF the rat catcher! What a great brave cat! <g>

Tell BF that you know you will never starve when he is around.

Mimi, it was a big rat. We fort and I got him subdued pretty quickly. He
was about 8 inches long, body and tail combined.

(Meowmies note: It was a rat about 4 or 5 weeks old. Body around 4 inches.
Interesting my Appenzeller chickens seem to have killed one from the same
litter. Very dead in their run today.) Some cockerels will kill mice.
These young rats are only a little bigger.

Nope dat not rite. Dey are huge and scary and I brave enuff to catch dem
when dey little, stop dem getting into big ones wiv the big scary brown
teef.

Boyfriend
the very brave ratcatcher

He's a brave boy:) There's a battery hen rescue on a Rescue forum
that rehomes ex battery hens. They make good pets and can happily live
in a suburban garden.
I did think about having a pair but decided not to in the end .
