The owner who donated them is keeping them in the brooder tonight. I will pick them up in the morning, when we are all packing to go.

OMG, I can not believe you posted that picture, Mary. My ugly mug on a public forum?

You all are just too funny!
I just got back to my room. I was downstairs socializing.

You guys are cruel!
I did not bang a bambi...I DID bang Bambi's big brother, and DH banged Bambi's great uncle......

I finally got done grinding burger this afternoon, cleaned coops (that have not been done in 4 days

) and cooked the dog stew..............bits, par-boiled, removed, thicken the stew drippings with corn starch mean while cut up the meat..add frozen peas, handful of rolled old fashioned oats, rolled Quinoa, and flaxseed, carrots slivered.
Add back to the gravy pot to cool...........this will be dished into quart zip locks, and then added to a 1 gallon ziplock, for doggie stew

And what's for dinner????
After liver & onions the first night ...........and steaks........we be having one of the meat chickens we raised,

I am going to bed!!

Chickielady I asked if you "Bagged bambi," not banged - banged sounds so pornographic. Besides in the movie bambi was a boy wasn't he. No wonder he grew up with problems. Kinda like a boy named sue.

Hi Kathy

You got someone off to a great start with those !!

The movie Bambi probably caused the greatest harm to American deer as anything that had ever befallen them.

Within 3 years of the movies release most states had issued deer hunting bans, over the next five years the population skyrocketed, massively overpopulating and literally causing widespread starvation in them. In addition some national forests like the Kaibab in Az were overgrazed to the extent that the the starving deer stripped trees of bark and branches up to 7' high and resulting im massive tree dieoffs along with the deer dieoffs in the winters.

Consequently saner minds did prevail and deer hunting was resumed, slowly in most states and eventually all.

So that is one of the few Disney feature cartoons I dont care for, great characterizations, but incredibly bad for the real animals in real life.

Off my soap box now, gotta sound like a biologist occassionally.

Life is good, and better with Icfelandic Chickens and Pack Goats !

Jake Ditto for the DisneyMovie "101 Dalmatians," too many people bought puppies that didn't fit their lifestle and too many people breeding them to cash in on the popularity. Also "The Lady and the Tramp," causing mayhem for Cocker Spaniels. Now I'm trying to think if Disney movies ever really benefitted animals. I suppose everyone wants a special needs Dolphin in their pool.

Boy so true !!

I wish that Walt had stayed with Steamboat Willy and Mickey.

There is a long list of animals that have sufferred after disney popularity.

Ironically, they put out a short series of True Life presentations of real American wildlife that they have never rereleased, Olympic Elk is one, Bears, and others, I think it was seven in all. Up to their time the greatest wildlife photography I had ever seen and even since on most. But they never released them again. Tragic actually. This was back in the 50s. I would buy everyone they'd release a DVD on ! Beautifully photographed, narrated and sound tracked.

Life is good, and better with Icelandic Chickens and Pack Goats !
