Proofs are pending.

The darling on the right is Note Master Linux.

He has the cutest crow in the history of crows.

He will stay.

The darling on the left is Rui da Silva.

He has had a lot of fun rooting the other boys.

You can see him eyeing off their bums!

He dies today.

Hi.

Yours truly, #mushroomstr

Repost from DeeFeeCee on Reddit:

---- Kill derives from the ME cรผllen while cull derives from the ME cullen. You'd think they'd derive from a common root, but surprisingly not!

Kill comes from the senses "hit, strike, throw (at), beat, cut, knock down" while cull's origins are more of the sense "gather, pick, get rid of". ----

I have never like the world cull, it always seemed too withdrawm to me. It has seemed to me to have a non-responsible/less truthfull/desensitising vibe to it.

Do you say cull or kill when you are knocking down the animal you have picked? ๐Ÿ˜ #homestead #iamakiller #youareakiller #weareallkillers #asknostr

In funny relation to your post about gil: SWIM would gleefully murder any predator eyeing-off their covey . . . Followed by MAXIMUM MUTILATION. Maybe the other way around! SWIM be crazy. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Interdast! Chimpkens or Quailberts? These Jap quail certainly seem comfortable around me and they know their little fortresses well, so I suppose it is likely they would hang around.

They would at leaat hang around until they were hanging from the beak of a kookaburra or the claws of an eagle or the mouth of my neighbour's huge dog who is seemingly impossible to keep out of the garden. Predator city here, so the the layers of cage are very comforting to me when I am not close. Haha.

It's the best! And no, they stay in the cage when I hose it out. I do it with a flat nozel point-blank, inch by inch, so they don't really get wet or bothered. Too busy pecking away at crumbs that have slipped through the fresh grass they get on top of the cage floor every morning. It is not obvious that I will get them back if I let them out. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Pre cage clean dust baths for the team.

The dark roo is behaving himself.

The other four are our darling ladies.

One of the many prudent points for attention in a vegan diet is consuming enough EPA and DHA (the marine omega 3s). A solution is to supplement them from algae. It is, however, expensive to get 1g of them combined per day in the belly.

Some run the gauntlet and only consume ALA (the plant omega 3), which is a precursor of EPA and DHA. Humans are rather inefficient at this conversion, although females are generally better at itโ€”probably due to child bearing.

For us omnivores, we have another trick up our sleeves (other than eating fish): our birdies! ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฃ

Birds tend to be more efficient at converting ALA to EPA and DHA, especially if they are non-marine birdsโ€”like my quail, for example.

Feeding your egg-layers ALA from linseeds, or the like, has a lovely consequence of EPA and DHA concentrations increasing in the yolks of their eggs . . .

Seeds are amazing.

Birds are amazing.

You are amazing.

No need to be such a radical! The stipules are clearly conspicuous and truncate: it has to be Oxalis exilis.

I dunnooooo, that taprooot tho . . . Oxalis radicosa?

That's a fine point you make. But, what if it is Oxalis corniculata?

Are you sure it isn't Oxalis perennans?

It puts the lemon sorrel in le pie. โ˜˜๏ธ๐Ÿฅง
