Stan, I'm sure that 20 rats was an impressive sight! I always thought it was strange that the chickens don't run them off. Perhaps a real fighten Rooster could handle it. Lots of good advise here. You'll need bits and pieces of most it to lick these nasty little buggers. Take it seriously, got to war against them, and you'll win. Even if you could use a shotgun, you'd never shoot all of them. The pellet gun is a good idea though. It will harass the rats and make you feel lots better. The point of the cement or the plaster of paris is that it makes the rats thirsty, and when they drink, their vitals solidify. Mix layer mash with plaster of paris about 3 or 4 to 1, and put it out for the rats. Keep it from the chickens. Harden the hen house to make it tougher for them to access the food and water. You want the poison feed to be readly available to the rats and the hen feed as tough as possiable to get to. You are now the corp commander defending the hen house homeland! Good luck.
