hi! daisy lover, gus sounds like our big bird , some days she is ok![[when she sees i havegrass or treat seeds] and sopme days she is very crabby about any one coming in her pen,or the back yard , she honks at the kids when they go by to the play ground! and she just has a major hissy when she sees the racoon or possum come up to eat with the cats, even though it is all the way down on the porch!oscar the male[loggerhead] likes to put on quiet a show too! as we know he is just so vicius[not!]:
he hisses something fearse when i move big bird out of my way or go into the little ones side, poor oscar his little head quivers and you know he just wants you to be scarred of him [protective dad] but his little pecks tickle! ha ha! better let big bird [mommy take care of that part! we were gone for the week end and all the animals were soo happy when we got back! thought about taking them to the lake with us like i did when they were little but scarred they may swim off , or get hit by a boat, as the lake house is across from a bar and resteraunt? i now the wuold love it [may be i could get some of that orange plastic fence stuff and close them off a area on the lake] what do you think?
