    So are acorns the size of a large grape coz my girl keeps bringing home what she calls acorns from school. I tell her that they cant be acorns because ducks like acorns and there is no way a duck could swallow that. Looks like im not smarter than a 6 yr old.

    I grabbed a hand full of the bigger acorns and fed the ducks they scoffed them back pretty quick.

    Don't think the chooks would handle them

    I wouldn't hyave believed that I I hadn't seen it. Hardly a natural habitat feed for them Dundee
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
