I left /c/Risa because the moderator there was letting his own personal feelings color rules, removing posts that violated no clearly written rules, and creating new rules without even running it past the community or asking how they feel about it.

The moderator of this community is guilty of that same behavior.

I’ll be over on [email protected].

    A bird bringing me gifts is one of my biggest dreams in life.

        Is she the one who got sued by neighbors?

        Oh ya

        In their lawsuit, two neighbors – Matt Ashbach and Christine Yokan – claimed the Manns’ bird feeders were drawing rats and flocks of birds to the East Shelby Street home. They demanded $200,000 in compensation for damage they claimed had been done by the birds, and a court order preventing the Manns from setting out more than a quarter-pound of animal food each day.

          Bird feeders do attract rats. Everyone who has a bird feeder in their backyard, also has a nest of rats somewhere near by.

            If you think you don’t have rats nearby, I’ve got some bad news for you…

              I have bird feeders, so there’s a huge nest of them in the backyard. If they don’t have easy access to food, then they move along and go somewhere where they do have easy access.

        I don’t know about all birds, but peanuts can have this type of fungus or something that is toxic to parrots. Parrot grade peanuts, assuming not false advertising, are higher grade than human food grade.

          Roasted and unsalted peanuts which you can get at the grocery store. The roasting kills any fungus.
