[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 342188, member: 3444"] TL, I keep the feed in a plastic storage tub with a snap-on lid -- haven't had issues with rodents chewing through, but if I did, I'd likely just switch to a small metal trash can. And it's been a while since we've had anything like raccoons, though they would likely try to eat the birds and not the feed! However, we do get mice/rats that come into the run and sometimes the coop (usually just mice) to get at bits of feed that have been missed by the birds. My hens will kill and attempt to eat any mouse that gets into their coop or run (of course, they need to be able to see it). I've found several dead mice in the coop before :) . [/QUOTE]
