Guest strapper Posted May 26, 2008 Report Posted May 26, 2008 birds eat mice droppings because it resembles the seed niger found in some mixes like conditioning seed. any droppings eaten from any animal would be considered bad or could be poisionous as it may contain any toxic substances or otherwise, that the body of the holder has rejected and removed .
