I agree VF, I only trust my OH, ( I'll continue this on a new thread)

Glad to hear your chooks on the mend heidih, :thumbsup: the only animal I've not given a fuss to
is my billy goat.....he 'REALLY' stinks! and my owl, Poopy. Everyone else can fuss him, for me though
it's talons and tantrums.

My son called the rat who is seen from time to time Poo Poo Dash, he will love it when I tell him an owl is called poopy, unless I read it wrong and it is Poppy ::)

10 years ago when we got him, he used to run around the house
chasing the dogs (before he could fly). His official name was scooter,
but because of his toilet habbits we called him scoot the poop -
which led to him being called Poopy! He is a bengal eagle owl.
We are registered with Rapture Rescue and in the past have taken in
all kinds of birds of prey. Our snowy owl though was the most impressive.
