Re: Feather pecking
Its a food chain thing. Chickens are in the food chain. We can eat mealworms (as long as they are produced to a standard considered edible) the same as we can eat cow or pig. But you cant feed cow, pig or mealworms to a chicken and then eat the chicken. Its a inherently dangerous thing to do. ... Ch...

Re: Books
I looked as well rick and was surprised at the price. Similarly a CD by Gunhild Carling. There seems no logic to it. DVDs are ridiculously cheap. Yet other things seem really expensive. Yes. I think, if music is available to buy by download (or pay-to-view for films) then it keeps the price down on...

It makes sense! Trying to find an Orpingtons vent with a thermometer is quite a challenge!

Re: Coronavirus
Sorry to hear Tweetiepie. Time, space and all else has no bearing on how it hits you. I was knocked back by a guy I used to know when I heard that he died and ... well lets say I wasn't a fan but spent a lot of time with him and went through a lot of stuff. Its OK, its a shock and turns over all sor...

I'm not a big book reader generally. The last blast was Murakami.
Anyway, this is not going to interest anyone, I suspect, but I just finished reading a book by Amanda Gefter - 'Trespassing on Einstein's Lawn.' Its blown my socks off!

I must admit, I just trim it away because the feathers involved have hopelessly lost all condition and, in the warmer ...

Re: Bird boxes
I would love to make an owl box with somewhere to put it. There's one over on Newbold Comyn that is falling to bits but I guess the location wasn't successful otherwise it would have been replaced.
