Dickie, if you'd been in the outback you would know that pigs
squeal like hell alot of the time, without watching overseas
tv programmes.

Methinks you are part of the Wendy etc crew and at this time
of night, perhaps due to the wine or whatever, your posts take
on the same irrationality as theirs.

Funny that Wendy says Yo and so does Dickie, perhaps Wendy
has grown a penis now :)

Dickie - imbalance has nothing to do with a pigs sexual preference, and they most certainly will 'rape' a female when she is on heat. Pigs act on instincts not human imposed morals. Their behaviour will go one 24 hours a day and I hear the screams of the latest victim during the night. Maybe that is a definition of torture? Unless of course that is your preference dickie?

Can you explain that 'cowboy hat and donuts' thing. It was lost on this poor country girl. I just love a man in a cowboy hat!

To Pigfarmer..'blood dripping out its arse..'..Disgusting terminology and could have been said in more respectful terms dont you think?

And if this occurs in your piggery..pack rape..why do you not seperate the offending animals to at least spare them that trauma..also for yourself (extra work) into the process?

Pigfarmer: Quote for the day:

"If at first you don't succeed why go on and make a fool of yourself?"

Lesson 1: An animal on heat is an invitation to mate. This is consensual sex - IT IS NOT RAPE

Lesson 2: When sex is forced upon the victim without their consent - THAT IS RAPE

Lesson 3: Most rapists are of the human species, though they are often described as animals - an insult to the animal kingdom!

Definitions of "Imbalance": Mainly human interference; Improper farming practices; Too many hogs for too few sows on heat; Failure to separate sows after initial mating; Pigfarmers who get off listening to pig orgies all night.

Definition of a Cowboy Hat: Straw stetson, usually worn by a cowboy who is sometimes seen swaggering down Pitt Street or the Terrace to see their accountant.

Cowboy's Dress Mode: Cowboy hat; spurs; Bits of straw in their dentures; Fly undone; Lassoo for snaring sheilas.

Cowboy's Persona: Likes to talk about his balance sheet; Brags about the number of live sheep he's exported; Complains about the smelly dead animals he's knocked off with 1080 in his baiting programme; Suffers with BO.

Definition of doughnuts: Brains

Recommendation: Hang around Pitt Street or the Terrace. Don't forget your whip and spurs!

So Yabby..what do you think of the practice a few yrs ago of foxshooters keeping the feral fox populatiobn under control around lambing time?

Did you encourage shooters to come in and cull foxes? Now that the fur trade is no longer a viable option for these shooters , how do you control your fox population around this time?

I am interested in methods used now to control foxes.

Well Rachel, we don't want to be accused by the animal libbers of
discrimination now do we. So we tie brightly coloured ribbons
around the necks of the smallest and weakest lambs, so that even those foxes
with vision impairment know exactly where to find the jugular
when they rip em to bits. Any more questions ? :)
