I realized that a few decades ago, cats weren't allowed in the house. They were kept in the barn and had a job to do, ie. keeping the mouse population down. Most 'pets' earned their keep.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17137889943066849207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680664903011977089.post-36124233266494328642008-03-06T07:49:00.000-08:002008-03-06T07:49:00.000-08:00Excellent point, Granny Annie... you help me realize I've already taken the rooster ban as a given, but others need to take care to make the ban on those guys explicit. Wwe all know you get plenty of eggs, but no new chickens, without any roosters around.ThomasKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13767145783844206988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680664903011977089.post-62948622570149950492008-03-06T04:55:00.000-08:002008-03-06T04:55:00.000-08:00She left out "banning roosters". Really the only way people know you have chickens is when they hear the rooster/s. This morning I'm listening to my 8 roosters and they are quite a chorus. Lucky we are in the country.Granny Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.com
