I know one breed that will actively hunt down and eat mice is the Muscovy duck. My sister raises them and they have not had so few mice in years. I got a young one for my small coup where the mice were even trying to eat eggs. Since the Muscovy duck has been in my coop, the mice have vanished. I haven't actually seen him eat one but they have not been around lately.

It's important to crush or break the peanuts into smaller pieces to prevent choking. However, their diet should primarily consist of grains, seeds, and aquatic plants for optimal health.
