Something like that? Bobcat. Have read of them being raised from kittens and turned into housepets. Good luck.
That's a no go around here.
Plus I've seen people killed for a lot less. A war round here could actually turn into a real war Lol
Not to say there isn't any asshole neighbors but they do know their place for the most part
Thinking of a few rabbit cages before a pig. The manure from rabbits is some of the best stuff for the garden! I like a good rabbit stew once in a while also! I`d like to learn to cure the fur from them and make buttoned on outer fur covers for down throws and bed covers with the furs.
Yep that`s the bob cat we have around here!Something like that? Bobcat. Have read of them being raised from kittens and turned into housepets. Good luck.View attachment 390141

I was thinking Plymouth Rock for the chicken breed for my flock. Not sure how many to start out with.
I don't know yet, but my hope is that they taste like chicken and aren't too terribly tough. They're a smaller bird than the Wyandottes, but they tolerate the weather *very* well. No wattles, short fat combs, seems like they're better for colder areas rather than warm to me, but they did just fine during the heat of the summer as long as they were able to go where they liked.How do those ameracaunas eat sea?You can probably stew anything but i know Cman says certain breeds are better eaters,layers etc.Freakin awesome looking bird though,my wife has a platter passed down to her that has a bird on it that looks just like it in her china cabinet.
Pute,This weather has me wanting to fish!70's and perfect here.
Mangalitza breed is what's caught my eye, or the Kunekune (sp? lemme double check those breeds).Seamaiden and I have been discussing getting a pig. Maybe for next season.
Considering how someone is ALWAYS getting schtooped in the bushes, I say give the roo 8 girls to schtoop or he'll be too rough on the birds he has access to.

I do believe, though, that this will be @pinegrovedave's first experience slaughtering animals.

Both are hairy breeds. That's pretty wild.
@markscastle, what altitude? I don't think you're much higher than we are, and all my breeds are doing just fine. We've got Rhode Island Reds (friendliest, and best egg layers, started first and are ALWAYS daily layers, good big eggs, too), Silver-laced Wyandottes (the STUPIDEST birds I've ever dealt with), and then the Ameracaunas, of which the rooster is a purebred bird who's already sired good chicks. If you build a predator-proof coop & run, and get a good roo to oversee the girls, you could let them free range during the day and coop at night. The eggs are smaller and it does take them some time to be diligent about laying in the nests where you can find them, but just like chickenman told me, they figure it out once they're a bit older. In fact, EVERYTHING chickenman has told me to do is completely spot on.
