    Raccoon Attack & lost will to live

    3 month old Pony who sucked up popcorn like a vacuum got attacked by Raccoon. She can see out of right eye, left still shut from dried blood. It's been 6 days & all I can get in her is a mixture of water, peach juice & honey. She has just lost the will to live.

    You Just Can't Trust Chickens!

    It was going to be -3 last night so I stuffed foam in the top air vents & put a cube heater in the coop. Set the thermostat low as it would go 40*. Just went out to turn it off and open the door. The darn buggers had the heater turned up to 70* I'll have to tape the thermostat knob.

    Covered Entire Yard With 2" Net

    Weekly hawk attacks and loss of two Comets forced me to spend another $110 to cover entire back yard with 2” net. This stuff is very strong and well made.

So I hollered at the rooster "What is wrong with you". That made the hawk take off and fly up in a tree. I ran outside...
