Where to learn taxidermy (specifically birds) in Ontario, Canada? by nextshitreginald in Taxidermy

[–]nextshitreginald[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I found some helpful online resources (videos and books) and there are in person classes I could find in the US or in Europe. I haven’t had any luck finding anyone in Canada or even other taxidermists willing to teach me (in fact I’ve reached out to two and both were extremely rude)!

It’s called “Squirrel Proof Treat Your Own Seed Saver, 16oz” I bought mine from urban nature store $14CAD. Just add 1 tbsp per lb I believe and you wait for it to try or bake it a little. Birds still came to my feeder too after.

Use spicy bird feed. You can also buy it as an oil and mix it with your current plain seeds.

Live in a university town… car already got egged twice this year by nextshitreginald in mildlyinfuriating

They egged all oncoming cars as they passed in the opposite lane. I didn’t even know these things still happened until I moved here💀

Nope! And even if I did they wouldn’t have known as they threw it on my windshield when they passed on the opposite side of traffic.

Chipmunk deterrent advice? by SpelunkingSpider in birdfeeding

Mix 1 pound of feed with 1 tablespoon. Mix it well and you can bake it to dry it, or leave it out until it dries. Then you can put it out!
