    Peafowl

    Hahahah me too. Only experience I have with peacocks is the one that showed up from out of the blue (our closest neighbors are a mile away & had no knowledge of it)- it beat up all of the mama hens & ate their chicks. Not cool. Someone took that awful thing far away- had I known they were good...

    Birth control in a EOTWAWKI situation?

    IMO abortion/miscarriage is NOT birth control, it's murder... but that's a whole other can of worms lol To me, "birth control"= prevention of a fertilized egg, either through a method that doesn't allow the egg & sperm to meet up, or that prevents the woman from ovulating.
