Re: [AlpacaTalk] RE: Severe Eye Injury
You're lucky that your rooster doesn't have long, sharp spurs. Our
rooster did. They were at least 1 1/2" long, and came to very sharp
points. I don't recall how old you said Mr Rooster is or what breed he
is, but it might not be a bad idea to keep an eye on those spurs.
"They" do indeed strap longer, sharper, metal spurs to their legs, but
their natural spurs can also be quite dangerous.
I just read about your trees. They sound like trouble! Yes, I've read
that many prunus varieties also have prussic acid in the leaves which
is concentrated when stressed or wilted.
I also just read about your coupon book problem. Can someone decide
what hours someone can operate and deny service that way? Doesn't sound
right. Though since it's a barter and not cash I guess she can whatever
she pleases...
Best of luck to you and keep us posted!
