As a matter of a fact I haven't heard my neighbors roster all week. Lol you live near Indy?

Thank you. I thought he looked pretty young. It took about 5 days to catch him. I even drug my husband out at 10pm at night to try to get him but he was roosting about 6 feet up in a tree behind a mass of brambles. I have been going twice a day to check him and feed him. Found that he wasn’t a fan of crumbles but would do just about anything for cracked corn. I was finally able to lure him in the crate with corn. And he absolutely knows what a net is! He is a smart guy.

You are a good person. Poor husband though....
Update when you get him a flock of his own!

Nope I am in VA. And I am hoping he doesn’t decide to serenade us too much. We are agricultural but I do have neighbors!
