Anyone make their own hummingbird nectar?

CF - I am the biggest chicken in the world - my blood type is YELLOW - I like puppies - dogs like to "sample" me - absolute fear of German shepards - attacted by one when I was 4 - 5 years old. Kittens are cute - don't like cats - don't trust them. Can't take feathers - seeing a snake shed it's skin makes me sick to my stomach (not a pretty sight - can't take peeling skin from sunburn either), the only thing I like that crawls are babies.

I'll just hide in the house after dark - LOL
 
I'm going to bait some this year and thin them out some. You need a bait they can't carry off so I use a gallon bucket of hog lard (the cheap lard - not veggy oil) and apply it to a rough barked tree with a putty knive. Get some up higher then they can reach too and let the rain bring it down. All canines are attracted to grease so don't be surprised if you see the neighbers dog licking on that tree too.
 
Jp, guess I missed your post some how, sorry about that. I don't kill anything any more, unless it is attracting me. I just put out food and water. I have been eying the squirrels, they are looking kinda fat. I don't think they are in any real danger. CF
 
We get a lot of raccoons and deer around this building at night and we are just on the edge of town on a busy street.

Squirrels rarely have much to worry about from coyotes unless they're caught too far from a tree. It's the rabbits that are just about wiped out by them.
 
JP, your right, not many rabbits here either.When I was younger we hunted rabbits at night. Man I still like rabbit. But don't get out much at night. The stores don't even sell them here anymore. CF
 
JP, the last rabbit I remember seeing was about $8.00. It was frozen and came from a co. in Arkansas. Pelfreez I think. To high for my budget. CF
 
wild animals to me - birds, squirrels, wild rabbits and we see occasional deer - to much of a jungle out there for me................
I'll hibernate in the house..........

Seeing as you can get a whole chicken for about $4.75 that is too high. The chicken probably weighed more.

No Mama, you can't hibernate in the house, you have to come out and play.
 
Mama is going to hibernate for sure! It's in the 20's and I am cold. Just give me my snuggies and a dozen blankeets!

I'll only come out and play in the daytime - but if I see an animal I'm running in the house and locking the door!
