It is a small but vicious creature....not sure of species categories but it has been dubbed the Delarex....it attacks at any time, goes for the head and neck area especially the eyes of its victim. Not known if lethal but it is dangerously annoying.

A sign that hunting ducks is a bad thing. This article cracks me up...I can visualize it and just start chuckling. Maybe the hunter would have better luck letting the dog do the duck hunting as the dog sounds like he is better at hitting his target
Dog steps on gun, shoots Utah hunter in...
DH had 2 coops made for me, a 4 x 6 for my ducks and a 6 x 8 for my bantams and they arrived today . The 4 x 6 has a divider wall down the middle making 2 pens, 4 plexiglass windows covered in 1/2" hardwire cloth, one large nest box per pen, lower nests boxes and pop doors, light outlet and...
