Quote: I watched an episode of Dirty Jobs where the pest guy was trapping a bunch of critters including skunks. They caught a family of them...even though they covered them to keep it dark, the skunk still sprayed in the trap. I would be careful with skunks--they often have Rabies.

My husband shoots what we trap and he's tried to figure out how to shoot the skunk without making it release but I don't think there's a way. I think when they die they release. I hate when it's a skunk in the trap! We throw all the remains over the cliff in front of our house for the wildlife to eat. (and when I say "we" I of course mean my husband)

Beautiful... I might have to buy or trade you some hatching eggs when they start laying Jason.

Hi, I might be moving to Ripon from Modesto due to a tragedy in my family. I can't seem to find the laws regarding chickens in Ripon? Can someone help? Thank you.

If anyone is so inclined- I entered a chicken pic http://www.facebook.com/Egg.Carton.Labels.by.ADozenGirlz/app_418636651527372 and my image is that fluffy feather one of one of my pullets (at 23 weeks she is almost a hen lol!)..I would so love to win first prize! hehe

How is everyone? Still no eggs here.... *sniff*

Glad someone posted, all my favorite threads had no posts this morning....thought there was a party I didn't get invited to!

OK, Amy Beth I used your link but can't see where to vote. I see your running chicken but don't see where to vote, just where to enter.

I edited my post above. But I think you have to Like their page first then the voting page shows up like the image in my previous post. I can see it because I have them liked.

I am sorry to hear about your family tragedy. I was able to find the section of the Ripon municipal code that talks about chickens, and the rules look very permissive. Here is a link: http://www.cityofripon.org/RMC/Title-06/6-32_Keeping-Fowl.pdf.

We had to dispose of skunks when I was growing up. We never found a way to shoot them without them spraying.

I really hate the smell too.
