Thought they might enjoy learning about their ancestors while snacking on grit and oyster shell

Awwwww

Chooks, ponies and kitties

Awesomeness over load there thanks Rebecca those where wonderful.

Those kitten pics are cute! The little buddy is so full of curiosity and youth and innocence. You can really see it in his face. They grow so fast! Good luck everyone

Interestingly, the referenced post was not revolting against taxes.
It was exploring the nuances of what constitutes an “opinion poll” versus a “duplicate response” when someone asks a question. And then whether both of those should pay the same tax. One might get fewer responses to a Poll if it required tax, however I’m sure most folks think the SHRA tax is valid.

Ohhh yeaaa

In my opinion, multiple answers to the Sylvie question would not attract SHRA tax unless everyone answers identically without acknowledging prior responses (I agree with xxx), or adding anything such as (in my experience yyy).
But as a broader point, paying tax should not act as a disincentive (who doesn’t want to share fun pictures of their little feathered friends?), but rather give pride that you are able to contribute to society.
I am only talking about FBA taxes of course!!

I usually try to add a tax to everything I write if I have some great photos.

And of course you just know there will be a lot of weather whining tax neo that snow and cold is here.

-4C freezing rain and snow on tap for today, I just bet the chooks will be staying in today.

Didn't you know nothing is fair in our world anymore. I mean does our chickens treat us fairly

We are mere Hooman - of course they don’t treat us fairly! They are our overlords!

Likely fungus, is that the same leaky spot from previously?

I think so, I'll need to wash it off with salt but it's not possible to reach

 

[Pastel the Rooster]

In your shoes, that’s what I would do! Make the run comfortable for them- loads of wind block and roost options.
But also if I were you, I would post a photo of that alligator

I’ll have to see if she’s still in the pond… she might have lead poisoning by now ()

 

[Pastel the Rooster]

I'd have to see it online, where's the ventilation, on the hidden sides? You could add it yourself, and put an eave or some weather protection over it. You'd want the run to have some better cover against rain from the sides, but you're in a warm climate and you can add that when needed maybe. This is a sleeping coop only, right?

Yes, only sleeping. I won’t even lock it at night, unless it’s really cold or if it’s super wet.

Getting somewhere here, thank you.

The definition of SHRA is not understood correctly by some tax collectors Or, the definition should be changed if it is so broad.

Questions of fact versus questions of opinion. As in: "Did Pastel get a new coop?" answered by ten posters. Not particularly useful. Versus "I'm worried about Sylvie, what do you think?" answered by ten posters. The range of answers there or even the agreement between the answers is quite useful.

If the second question is looking for a general consensus, one answer does not satisfy that: If someone agrees with the single answer, how will anyone else know they read it and agreed?

My heart started beating when you said my name… I thought I was in trouble!
