Re: [PyrNet-L] Re: Bunny-Crunching

I don't know about the bunny crunch but I do know about the other animals.
My husband and I have three pyre's. Our male, Roscoe is the only one we have
raised from a pup. Our two bitches are sister's from rescue that came into
our lives at four years of age. We have a retail pet store and an 18 acre
bird farm. Our male Roscoe has grown up in our store and here at the farm
around all of our baby birds. One day I walked onto our bird baby nursery
and found Roscoe herding 3 baby blue and gold macaws across the floor and
back up the side of the cage. I guess he figured when God said guard the
flock it did not mean just sheep.
