EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

I'm scared of lightning, so I left it and went inside.

So you tempted the poor chicks all night with a tasty snack they couldn't reach?
 
For the first I would suggest looking at Duck call lanyards. Might be able to find something that would work.

For the second, ehh it's a tough call. I'm a huge advocate of CC depending on the situation. Depending on what you typically carry I'm not sure how much protection it would provide against a bear(which I suspect is your greatest concern). The debates would go back and forth when I was in Alaska and I never really nailed down where I stood. If your considering personal protection from something else I would say go for it. Last I checked airline process was pretty straight forward and not that complicated.
It would be for two legged predators. My 360 that I typically carry as my CC would not be for bears, but the bear spray is effective on people to ;)


As I was typing I decided it might not be for bear protection. I would say take it just in case. And your correct the bear spray would work as well.

Also did a quick google search for the lanyards I was talking about and they have some nice ones made out of paracord. I think I remember you and benny talking about paracord bracelets. Those typically have a neuse style knot to hold the calls but could esily be adapted with a buckle system.
 
LOL
Guess what? If I didn't know better, I would think you were Duckling's bio mother. She had a shot, and is waiting for the same day to test.
^.^ ***.... except I don't let people watch my kids. I get neurotic about trusting other people. Ever since my mother in law lost my oldest a couple times at a park/disney land, and left my toddler in the car and I came out of the bathroom and was like *** ARE MY KIDS.... I don't trust people anymore. haha
 
First, depending on what you want to carry you could find lanyards of some sort or if it's slightly bigger items a less than stylish fanny pack.
Second, I would take it. Depending on what you carry more than likely it'll be useless against a bear but that's what the bear spray is for. Consider the CC as backup or insurance in case SHTF. Should be fairly straightforward and easy with flying with it.
I have to put my bear spray, knife, water, and other items on something to give me quick or easy access.

Last time I went off into the mountains I used carabiner clips to clip a couple things to the shoulder straps and chest strap of my pack. Knife was on my belt and water was either in a camelbak or in a water bottle on the side of the pack.

Losing a child happens. Not always a good reason for it, but sometimes... As for the car, that is done by her parents too often. As is leaving her in the cart in the middle of an isle while they are an isle over.

I found her, and took her. Her father was calm as can be when he found us. It never occurred to him that she had been kidnapped.

It was 100+ degree weather when they left him in the car - had I not been with them, he'd have died. I'll never trust her with my kids in a car again - she's also forgot to use car seats, forgotten to buckle them in the car.

I've never lost a kid. She was warned my oldest had to be watched carefully, as he had a history of wanting to wander off - she disregarded me, and has lost him multiple times. I no longer trust her to not lose my kids - depending on which kid it is. My daughter won't wander off, so I'd trust her to take her to a park - but since I don't trust her to *drive* my kids........

I've seen enough bad car **** with her, to be like "yeah, nope."

I've never forgotten a kid. ^.^ I just have higher expectations that if someone is responsible for kids, they don't "get distracted and forget to get the toddler out of the car" and act like it's no big deal. It would only take a few minutes in that heat.
