Roberts hand is clawed up . He jumped on his back yesterday. Robert said his correction was scaring him half to death when he screamed. hahaa Not funny .
I used my finger and tapped his nose today but wondered if they/he knew why I was doing it.

did you say "NO" when you tapped his nose ??

No, they are full grown. But i will correct kittens too by saying no if they do something bad, and remove them from the area.

 

[Wishing4Wings]

well a 22 shell will correct them only its a permanent correction

Booooooo!

 

[Granny Hatchet]

who screamed the kitten or Robert ??

Robert. You know that had to hurt.

I suspect Yak Math is much more expensive than chicken math. Does anyone near the farm have acreage for lease?


aw, you're no fun!



I have lost 15 lbs! Sad part is it's not very noticeable except tightening my belt. Have had to severely curtail my TB intake.


Cats are trainable! Ming knows "no." Sometimes she tries to sneak on my lap when I don't want her to, and I tell her no and she stops. Sometimes. Henry knows NO because I reinforce it by acting like I'm going to kill him. (He keeps trying to get out the door.)

I saw a troupe of trained cats at Marine World in San Diego long time ago. It's possible!

well currently my chicken feed bill is between 200 and 300 a month (no oats left) so I think poundage wise Yaks are cheaper. at least currently

there is NOTHING close I am surround by greedy BIG farmers/ranchers.

And just had a huge thunder boomer go off

Grass fed beef does have many of the benefits of organic beef, simply as side effects to raising their cattle on a pasture. Because the cows are in their natural habitat, with access to all of the open space you need to support a herd of cattle, their lives are more humane, less stressful, and much more sanitary, which means their immune systems are under less pressure, don’t require artificial assistance, and their meat is much less likely to be contaminated with diseases like E. Coli. If antibiotics are used on grass-fed cattle, it’s only in rare cases when the animals are actually sick, not constantly like feed-lots have to use them. Why pay for gallons of antibiotics if your animals are healthy and clean all on their own? Cows eat all kinds of plants on the pasture, including weeds, so it doesn’t make sense to spray their pastures full of herbicides. Pastures are essentially wild, with their own balanced ecosystem and plenty of help from cow manure, so pesticides and artificial fertilizers are really unnecessary. While grass-fed, non-organic beef may be exposed to more chemicals than organic, it’s certainly cleaner than conventional beef.

It's tastier too.

Booooooo!

NOT that I ever have done such a thing.
and don't plan on it ever

I have shot a couple "feral" cats that were killing my smaller chickens, BUT that was protecting my birds.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

did you say "NO" when you tapped his nose ??

I dont remember. He was crawling up the chair to the kitchen table and I got tickled because after I tapped his nose he just hung there swinging by his front legs. LOL

Robert. You know that had to hurt.

tell Robert that's "karma" for him being "nasty" to you yesterday
