Oh the trials and tribulations. The last couple that came here when it was muddy brought their two OCD kids.They were running around like little banchees and the adults must have never seen new planted grass before, they thought that was the place to trudge through the mud.
another good reason to meet outside of the gate they go running around here like that they may end up with a dog attached to their britcheswould not want to take a chance on a strutter getting PO and jumping a kid that would not leave their territory neither.
You have my sympathy. Did the parents even tell them quit playing in the mud, or get out of there, or word that most parents I see never use NO! When did no become such a bad word? I want to walk up to a parent when they say no to their child and just give them a gold star or at least say thank you.Oh the trials and tribulations.

Sometimes the apple does not fall far from the tree, so many kids are disrespectful , good for you for speaking upYou have my sympathy.

I'm love going to the county fair because I get to meet with new people from other FFA chapters or see kids I know from other chapters, and I get to show animals. One thing that sometimes kills the vibe is parents with their kids that don't care if they slap a steer or heifer or pull birds feathers.
Last year with Thora I had a kid about 6 or 7 that decided it would be a good idea to grab a peahen's tail feathers that is standing their. The kid yanked on the tail feathers and she was on the tether attached to me just laying on the ground and I felt the tug and the kid is trying to drag her by her tail feathers. I was so mad the kid started crying from me yelling at you don't try to drag a bird by it's tail feathers. Then the mom comes over and says, "why is my kid crying?" Of course the kid responds first, "that mean man was yelling at me." She looks at me and asks, "what do you have to say for yourself?" I looked at her and said you son walked up to my bird and tried dragging my peahen by her tail feathers. The lady I wanted security to remove her for what she said after I told her. "Kids are kids just let him pull your birds feathers its not like it will hurt the bird, just let my kid have fun."Luckily before I blew up on her the poultry leader was listening and says, "no your kid doesn't get to pull on the birds feathers because that can hurt the bird and you can't predict what will happen." The lady responds with, "What is the bird going to do?"
It can be sad just seeing so many kids rather near my age or younger being such brats all I can think is, we're doomed. One kid at my school didn't believe me of how much damage peafowl can do to people. A week later he showed up to school with his arms having big gashes and scratches on his face. I asked him what happened and he said, "I didn't believe you saying that peacocks can be so strong and do so much damage and can hurt you, I'm sorry I doubted you." I could only laugh. He told me he tried to pull a feather off his neighbor's peacock and after he chased it for a few feet it turned back and got a hold of him.Sometimes the apple does not fall far from the tree, so many kids are disrespectful , good for you for speaking up, to bad she can not handle the truth believe me when that child becomes a teenager she will not know what hit her, of course it still won't be her child's fault, she will lay the blaim on everything but the true source seen it many times threw the years.
India blue chicks in my area are listed on Craigslist for $75-$100.
I get the same.
