20230501_162105.jpg 20230501_162102.jpg Gosling update. There were a couple of families together today. They are getting bigger, and they flap their little wings when I approach. They remain very cute, and I am able to get pretty close. Still need to keep bread in my truck. Will continue to update.

don't feed them bread or any sort of processed grain food. if you can get your hands on some oats, peas, corn, or greens like lettuce and kale, then I think they would fare much better.

Carolina Parakeet was the only Parrot native to the Atlantic Coast and Middle Plains in the United States. Unfortunately it went extinct in 1918.
 
I've been delving into other chicken breeds to distract myself, and look at these lil guys. They're called seramas or kikirikis, and they're fucking tiny. Most of my other chickens are bantams (which just means small breeds), but I have a few brahmas because I like how big they are (they're also very chill).


I posted this in the Jack Scalfani thread, too, but look at her.....

Haha! That video reminded me of roosters’ wiley ways. The video cut before a scuffle kicked off, but when I had a light Brahma and he was feeling a bit cheeky, he’d pretend to be scratching for bugs to distract and redirect so he could attack. Both roosters in that video are basically pretending to not care so they can surprise attack one another.

I have a cousin who had a pet kikiriki named Fatty, he was the cutest little thing. He’d come up to you and ask to be picked up and just wanted to be carried around al lady like a kitten
