If eating roosters makes you a morning person, then somebody has been slipping me a lot of owl lately....  

:BEST homer simpson voice: Mmmmm owl.

Quote: Ooh, don't need to do that - that has become a problem here the last couple of years. Horrible thing to see. Daughter Tam had a little buck in her yard last summer that clearly had it. She called Fish and Wildlife about it and they came and tranquilized it and took it for testing. Came back positive.


This is the little buck. Let her walk right up to him snapping pictures as he grazed next to the neighbor's car.

Very nice sign! Good thing deer go to deer school to learn how to read English!

That reminds me of the posting about the person who couldn't understand why the deer didn't follow the "Deer Crossing" signs and cross where they were supposed to.

I have a basic reading class for all deer in the area, it is not my fault they fail to take advantage of it.

Hanging steak in the woods probably would attract deer:

Even a fool, when he is silent, is considered wise.

For me it seems to be like so many things in life - lots of kibitzing. I had a guy working on the house tell me just this morning, "You know, your chickens are very cold." Now, I'm a first time chicken keeper but the one thing I'm probably most confident about is that my chicks are not cold! Of course, once it gets into your head, it starts to gnaw at you, doesn't it?

Turns out this guy had never kept chickens, but his dad had

I didn't tell him that i've probably read every single thread on BYC about chickens in the winter, hah!

the other thing that bugs me is that so often when you tell someone you have chickens, they act like you are such a rebel. I think chooks are the awesomest but I don't think I'm this crazy hippy for having them! I imagine there was a time back in the day when more people would have had them than not.
