    Tethers and Why They Should Never Be Used on Peafowl

    The duck has to be the correct weight, not too skinny and not too fat right? I forgot about goats. They are often shown too. At the fair the leaders got to push a pig. Growing up in California, I had no clue what to expect. Turns out you walk the pig with a stick. I did that twice. From there...

    Tether? Like chaining a dog to a tree or run? Maybe it would be a good idea to give her to someone who could handle a temperamental bird like she.
