We have been discussing getting chickens (battery rescue ones) but I am worried cat will kill chicken (and get hurt in the process).

Plan B!
Chickens, cat, webcam, pay-to-view.
My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

I think I prefer the idea of a webcam for the bankers being executed.Originally posted by RichardCranium View Post Plan B!

Go for it. Everybody who keeps hens thinks they are great. Lots of work though, but I suppose you can eat them if you can't be bothered any more.Comment

I believe the run is just until they get used to their new home, then you can let them out into the garden after a week.Originally posted by sweetandsour View PostOh, I’m sorry….I seem to be lost. I was looking for the sane side of town. I’d ask you for directions, but I have a feeling you’ve never been there and I’d be wasting my time.Comment

Cats are lazy and unless very hungry would rather kill something smaller.
Some cats get on very well with chickens in fact. For some reason they don't seem to see them as prey animals.
Large, hungry, feral tom cats however, are a different proposition.
You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

Their poo stinks - possibly the worst thing that came out of our muck spreader back in the day. I fell Over in a huge sloppy load of this stuff and it bloody horrible. My dad literally turned the hose onto me to wash it off.Originally posted by bogeyman View Post
Foxes on the otherhand generally do kill themOriginally posted by bogeyman View Post
We had one on our farm in Aberdeen. It used to stand right outside my window trying to make the cock a doodle do noise it was supposed to but couldn't and made some whiny squalk instead. It did this when the sun came up i.e. about 4 am in summer and mid day in winter. I was quite happy on the day when we found that a fox or something had got it.Originally posted by bogeyman View PostRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment

I don't - we had some for a while but although the eggs were nice, it isn't worth the bother. They will wreck your garden. Unless you have the guts to keeping killing the ones who aren't productive you will wind up with expensive pets. Throwing corn about doesnt half attract rats. They fight amongst themselves for no apparent reason.Originally posted by thunderlizard View PostComment

They have only slightly more brain power than cybertory which means they are very good at getting lost run over and generally killed - and you only ever lose the good ones.Comment
