Did you all know that Chickens eat Mice? by Succatash

I have a vote and I'm not afraid to use it!

I live across the street from fields and such. And have a problem with mice, rats and gophers. I was thinking of getting some chickens for their eggs (except I'm allergic to feathers, but presuming that the allergy shots work), would a couple of chickens help with the rodents?

My brother's chickens are tough and they intimidate his two minpin dogs, and they also chase cats out of his yard.

But he keeps them in his chicken coop now, and no longer lets them roam around the yard. I think the main reason why nobody wants chickens roaming the streets is because of their incredible ability to crap everywhere, and chicken poo is some mean stuff, a cross between paint and tar.

I grew up on a small farm and never once saw a chicken eat a mouse -- course, our cats probably made it impossible.

I always laugh at those who think chickens should only be fed "vegetarian" diets. They don't realize chickens are omnivores. Our chickens' FAVORITE food was the grub worms I used to throw over the fence to them (I saw them eating bugs and other worms so I figured they'd enjoy a juicy treat - and boy howdy did they!)

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Seems to me if you own an orchard and you don't want to use pesticides a flock of chickens might work. And, they'd fertilize the trees a little. Nature... one big toile... I mean "cycle"!

If we are what we eat, and you eat chickens, and chickens eat mice, and mice eat grain then mice are grain and chickens are grain and you are grain. Therefore, you are a vegetarian grain. Does that make you a cannibal?

Perhaps you should just hide that face of yours because I'm SO certain that when you show it to the world, the angels weep...or start to laugh their heavenly, collective asses off.

You do realise, River, that what you are doing is illegal?
1) You've stolen an image from my servers.
2) You're using my image without permission.
3) What you're doing amounts to stalking.

Like I've said before real flattering that you love me that much to make me the centre of you insanity and obsessions, but still, illegal.

I thought it looked like a cell-phone self-portrait, the focus point (at one arm's length away) giving a slight fish-eye perspective with the lens. And your right shoulder is raised holding the phone.

You should have me do your portrait. I'm very, very good. Think Holbein (either one) with a camera.
