Resist that look, the pig scarfed down 2 snack boxes full yesterday herself.

That’s a lot of raisins

Between that and stealing chick starter at every opportunity, she is cut off of treats for a few days. I figure by Sunday she will be at the front door screaming at me.

Sylvie and Calypso? Did I get it right? Hard to tell with no head on the grey one.

You have done well. We don’t want fatty liver syndrome in our chooks!

Actually, that’s what I pass out to the kids on Halloween night. Raisins, granola bars
Cashews.

You got it.
It was supposed to be a Sylvie mugshot but of course she turned around!

Do they also kill bees and butterflies?

They do not. Those little white moths but not bees or butterflies. At least not in mine. I would not use it if it did.

I can't even fathom 117 - do be careful.
And many thanks for the info on the Dynatrap - it says it does not attract bees. Although the statement it doesn't attract pollinators generally is a bit dodgy as many of those other things to do play a role in pollination - but happy to see bees and at least some other pollinators are safe. I may indeed get one and see if it helps this season.

It is a great food source for my hens. They love when I empty it.

I read all the details on how it works and I just ordered one. If it really works it could be life transforming for me!
Those white moths do pollinate but I don't think they are under pressure like bees so I will give it a go.

Of course she did - she knew it was Friday!
