    how to attach one piece of chicken wire to another

    Buy a wire tier/cutter like this and some wire and twit tie the loops. Just an idea. I use them safety wireing pieces and they work pretty good. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=all&item_ID=6986&group_ID=770&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog Just a thought.

    RECYCLE!

    Along these lines - I found these two articles to be kinda interesting. I could not go with the vegatarian side of it but I like the non consumerism message. It's about a group of people called "Freegans." It's about trying to live as close to free as possible through "recycling." Also, both...

    Pellets or Crumbles???

    I can't find pellets at my local Fleet farm or Tractor supply. Just crumbles. I guess I should try a feed mill. They seem to waste alot of my crumbles. They wont eat the fines.

    Conflicting theories on if chickens will fly over my fence

    I aggree with Patandchickens statment - a) unless they are meat birds, your chickens will be perfectly well able to fly over a 4' fence, and b) there is absolutely no way to predict whether or not they will choose to do so on any given day (or ever). suspecting that a lot depends on how sedate...

    I feel bad about all the dog attacks so here is my 2 cents

    I did the same thing with my two Labs. As pups I put them on leash and sat with the chickens. Pretty much anything they did shy of ignoring them got them a correction in the form of little yank of the leash. At that time I would very sternly tell them "those are my chickens." Then I took them...

    How to dispatch trapped predator? (kinda graphic)

    Well if you have a shotgun just get some #6 birdshot and stand off about 20 yards, then have some one open the trap. When it comes out to run away you should be able to hit it. The diameter of your pattern will depend on the choke tube in the barrel, but it should be several inches at distance.

    does anyone remember shows from the 80s - 90s?

    Alot of these old cartoons/sitcoms are on one of Nickelodeans channels. Adult swim on the cartoon network is funny as heck as well, but these are not old shows and are not very child friendly.

    neighbor's pest (rooster)

    Quote: What I'm saying is that if my trashcan blows on to your yard, you do not get to keep it. Where I come from I am allowed to protect my livestock. Aso there is no law, written or unwritten that says I have to go notify Mr. Irresponsable just how irresponsable he has been. Anotherwords...
