in this random rambling thread we post random pictures

Well, thats what I was thinking, but now I'm embarrassed to have opened myself up to correction (and rightly so, if you were a youngster).

But ya, I knew you and I were close in age, but sometimes your just wrong.

OK, had my dose of humility for the day. Think I'll go find a pic instead.
 
So true.

Here's a mob of hungry birds chowin' down on some millet:


(Love how my 3 Barred Rocks are all in a row :P)

Lotherial, your birds are beautiful! How are you likeing the guineas? I don't like their constant rackett. I think they are worse than peafowl. However, what a little garden hunter, eh?
 
Yep, I don't miss them. I 'll never have them or peafowl again ever. I love my turkeys, chickens, ducks, geese and moslty the quail, but no more loud dumb birds for me.
 
Well, if you think guineas are loud, brace yourself. Peafowl scream at one another randomly. (go listen on youtube, but crank it up for the right dcbls.

They fight turkeys. (really fight, flying into air, talons out, day after day) They fly only cars from trees up above, and their nails are very damaging to paint and people. The hens are good setters, but loose all the babies usually. Expensive, and hard to treat. They can fly out of every cage, unless its got a top. The roost up about 20 feet or so every night, so forget catching them again.

But, if you like her and it wins the heart of a wrothy woman, I'd get a few anyway. At least the eggs and chicks are valuable.
