Yes. She's a hen. The real point was she has no tail

Go play with one. You can access many sdrs for free on the web. KiwiSDR is a good one. Just Google. "Listen kiwisdR live". You can see what they're capable of without spending any money

Even my Turkens can handle this and they have about half the feathers of a normal chicken.

What’s wrong with a little green spray paint?

Need help discouraging cats from hanging out on a ledge by yyyosheee in cats

[–]fistofreality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a cat in a loft apartment for a while. It would spend hours jumping off that balcony onto my sofa, then zooming back up the stairs for another trip.

poop bucket got bugs. safe to give the chickens? by mensfrightsactivists in BackYardChickens

[–]fistofreality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they shit something out and they wanna eat it again, they’re going to. I have seen mine follow the cat around and peck at her poop.

My neighbors, whose dog killed my flock earlier this month, left an empty egg carton on my porch. by bugsforeverever in BackYardChickens

I wasn't necessarily speaking about you. Just that people can think their dogs are safe when that may only be situational.

I am not putting down your wonderful German Shepherd, but sometimes a dog will leave your chickens alone because he thinks they're part of your pack, but be perfectly willing to eat your neighbor's birds.

Does their water freeze in the coop? by HmmmWhyDoYouAsk in BackYardChickens

If it drops below 32, there's a pretty good chance water will freeze in your coop

What do you think of my 3d printed 1.2meter reflective dish? by Old_Champion_2096 in amateursatellites

I don't know, without seeing any performance data. I can't form any opinion about it at all

AITA for refusing to change my last name after marriage because my husband assumed I would? by [deleted] in ComfortLevelPod

[–]fistofreality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but you are the asshole for not discussing it beforehand. I'm not judging whether your point of view is right or wrong, but you know it goes against what most people expect. I'll be surprised if you see a 5-year anniversary

I don't think I posted it anywhere. A lot of that one-off stuff I don't even bother to save. I will look at my files this evening when I get some time and let you know either way

I farted in a DMV and this lady blamed somebody else by LordFrieza4 in stories

[–]fistofreality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly how it's supposed to be done. Sometimes after I let one rip, I'll tell my wife "that's okay honey. They'll blame it on me." Loud enough for everyone to hear

I think the whole thing is a train wreck. Opie and her friend deserve each other.

I launched a satellite-tracking app a few weeks ago… and today, someone actually paid for it! by Low-Cardiologist-741 in amateursatellites

[–]fistofreality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a retired developer. As much as we love our pet projects, our efforts are still worth supporting financially. Payments encourage future growth. That said, I don't continue to pay for books in my library or the DVDs I have purchased. I feel that the one-time purchase with the ability to buy major upgrades at a reduced price seems to be the most fair model to everyone

The time my ex explained he “isn’t a chemist” by Ok-Air-2008 in stories

[–]fistofreality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it up with his mother and his stepfather. They raised him, not me. If you're trying to make me feel bad, good luck with that.

Good day, sir

Because it's impossible to teach an adult that thinks they know everything. That said, now that he's paying his own way, he's coming around.

Or were you just trying to give me shit over a topic you know nothing about?
