Is anyone interested in some pigeons? Someone offered me quite a few and he said if I take a group of them he will sell em cheap.

I found these at Walmart, but they did not come in my size...or I would have them..It would embarrass my kids and grandkids to the point of being worth wasting the money on them.. BTW it comes in men's sizes too...

I have to relate an event that shocked me....



I have a Toad rooster named “hoover”. I did not hatch this toad. I got it from someone else in my area that raises toads.......... BTW you all know this person too....



I got him for breeding as I was not sure I had a good toad rooster for this year. Being a honest person, I did not want her to think I took Hoover on false pretenses informed her I would be using him as a back up breeder as I have a better rooster I hatched late last summer and I would bring him back to her...



Her response was “ well, he can be served up along side the turkey on Thanksgiving”



I was in shock (again) here this person is telling me to kill her pet rooster. I talked to Hoover, yesterday and found he lived in fear the entire time he lived in Mayhew Township!



The other thing I have learned is she has a Toad hen so afraid of her it is hiding under the floor of a building refusing to come out......



I always thought she was a nice person and loved her animals.....Now I am a tad worried when Social Services and PETA get through investigating the Animal Cruelty I reported her for, if she will cause me to live in fear too.



I am thinking of having a restraining order drawn up just to be safe....Any other ideas of things we can do to someone who treats chickens like this?

In the defense of said incriminated person or persons, I would venture a guess that a name like “Hoover” would mean the only thing he fears is a shortage of feed.
