Jays, crows, 'possums, raccoons, and occasionally skunks leave tell-tale shells. Jays and crows may carry empty shells quite a distance from where they found the eggs, while a 'possum or 'coon leaves empty shells in or near the nest. Sometimes after cleaning out a nest, a bold 'possum will curl...
When you show them It is like dogs sort of. There are different breeds and each breed needs to look a certain way. They get points based on different traits. Usually the cages are provided but you have to pay a small fee per bird sometimes. Buttercups are a very difficult breed, especially...
