I wouldn't recommend leaving any dog other than a fully trained LGD alone with chickens. That said, look into low prey drive dogs whose coats can be shaven down
I do think it's sort of odd. I'd expect people who didn't care much about their birds to let them go, but birds that are fully trained and whatnot would mean that they had caring owners.
Doesn't make much sense that they put so much work into a bird, to let it go. Situations might...
Hi Chicky:frow!
Glad to see you!
Beautiful new chicks (despite the fact there are no bantams😜) and cool bees! Always thought bee keeping was very interesting
I don't like my photos circling too much, certainly not outside BYC (plus, I'm not sure my birds are what you're looking for?), but good luck securing some photos, and good luck on your presentation :)
If they were rotting, I'd consider leaving the healthy roots and plants to air dry for a few days. The soil looks very moist, good thing you got them out. Don't water for a while!
It's not even funny at this point. The photo of that lovebird might've sent me over the edge (I've always loved lovebirds). The need for another parrot is too much
