What do you do with your dead (chickens, ducks, quail, etc...)

I'm so sorry for your loss of Mossy!!! What a great life she must have had!!! We have a Dark Brahma (the one in my avy) that has been around more years than I can remember. She is beloved by all, family & visitors. When we lose her it will be a massive heartbreak.

Your work never ceases to amaze me. I told my family that when I pass, they must find you & commission you to do a piece for me.

Why wait, do it now so you can enjoy the art! (May nor want to do a headstone tho). LOL

You are so right! I like the way you think.

Hot dang. That's an awesome job you did. Do you take requests for non chickens?

Certainly. Send me a message if you're interested.

Thank you to everyone for your kind comments.

Very nice. Stone sculpting is very uncommon. I became a part time stone sculptor when I retired. I've always been an artist but I like doing uncommon things so sculpting struck my fancy. I planned on going to Italy for sculpting school but a couple sculptors from Zimbabwe came to St. Louis so I learned under their tutelage.

If you ever pass through the Atlanta airport and have a little time, instead of riding the "plane train" between terminals, go down to the train level but walk between the A and T terminals. They have a wonderful exhibit of Zimbabwe stone sculpture.

The plush hen in your avatar should live a good long time.

Thanks for that.
Our MOBOT (Missouri Botanical Garden) had the entire garden graced with some spectacular works by these two plus many other famous Zimbabwean artists.

Put them in the ditch for the coyotes. generally arrange them nicely after harvesting feathers.

This needs to be added to the poll - Bait Predators

Another interesting thread would be "What do you do with your predators?" Although depending on where we live & what our predators are, we might all be at risk of getting in trouble, so probably not a good idea.
