Why Do People Buy Live Chicks From Breeders and Farm Stores‭?

Yikes. I am super glad you edited that one! Not much offends me, but to call out a specific member that hasn't posted in your thread and isn't around to defend their position is just really poor taste.

I hate editing. For some unknown reason once I start tinkering with a paragraph it doesn’t flow the way it did.
The stories about the chickens here, the core of the book, need to emotionally engage the reader. Some seem to work better than others, but I don’t know what the key is.

I can’t. It’s a National Park. I’m not sure I would if I could.
I’ve killed a creature like an oversized mink here that I caught up a tree.
I did get a few nasty scratches.
It’s part of what makes things interesting here. The chickens either learn about the predators and survive; eldest being nine years old now, or they die. Once again, that’s the way of the world. As you mentioned, other breeds would have better survival chances but if a chicken here makes two years their chances are decent

An oversized mink up a tree is a Fisher... You killed a fisher in a national park? Well that is illegal, nice of you to go around killing animals that you know nothing about in a NATIONAL PARK. And I am the irresponsible one

It's called a Fagina here, It's nothing like a Fisher Cat.
What do you know about what is and isn't legal out here,,,nothing,
