Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

You could feed an entire family with one, but again, good luck collecting them!

Pet dino's. That's what we all need

NOT.


I think I'm missing a chocolate orp chick. They run so fast, its hard to count them, but I'm pretty sure one is missing. I didn't let them out yesterday, but they were out the day before, but I didn't count them the other night because it was semi-dark and they were mostly huddled up with their mommas, so I didn't bother them. And I think it might have been a mauve. But I'll do a better check this afternoon.

But riding a pet dino to work would be fun.

Hope you are able to find the chick if its missing.

Maybe with a muzzle.

Thanks, I hope so too.

Nah, you just have to be a flintstone.

Wow that's a different problem . I have a cheap break barrel Crossman .177 cost a hundred dollars . But will kill a groundhog at fifty yards if shout in the head . Not consistent though. One shot out of five is dead on center . @ WalnutHill uses a Gamemo not sure if its gas or air . Get one that will shoot 1200 fps and you can take out the monkey . But really a strong enclosure is the best defense against chicken stealing vermin . What will keep a monkey in will also keep it out . Guess what I'm saying is you may need a chicken zoo in your yard . DW is up getting ready for work which means I should disappear so I'm out to candle . Good morning all and goodbye . time to

Hope that candling goes well and thanks for the gun advice. Enclosures are not really my thing - if I was compelled to do that, I would not keep chickens (maybe for a batch of meat birds only).

Get a paint-ball gun

That might not be a bad idea - at least i would not have to get a gun license

Morning.

Can't imagine trying to keep out a monkey. Glad that's not an issue I have.

We were watching something about dinosaurs the other day and my hubby said "Wouldn't it be cool if they were still around:"

Uh, no thank you! Talk about a predator problem!

The only blessing is that if they were still around, we would not

Are you allowed to trap the thieving buggers?

Trap it and then do what with it? Certainly my trap set for the egg-eating mongoose did not work - the monkeys reached in and took the eggs without setting off the trap!

I'd be in deep chit if anyone found out i was killing 'em. If if i was in West or Central Africa i could sell the whole thing and make more than a few dollars - not here in East Africa as they are not considered a delicacy.

Train it as a guard monkey against the other monkeys.

Hi Bye K! Wow never considered the monkey invasion problem you would encounter. ! Guess it's like our raccoon or opossum problems.

Just 20 times smarter.

Good morning, Pond Scum.
