what do you feed it? wife and I have a maggie who has taken to chilling in one of our trees. We want to encourage her without making her at all dependent, and certainly dont want to give her anything she shouldn’t have.
Feed this one mealworms and cheese w/ some calcium carbonate mixed in. Doesn’t seem to be dependent even though it’s fed small bits pretty often. When you don’t feed it, it just jumps back on the lawn and does its thing w/ no hard feelings lol.
Apparently good quality cat food is OK in small quantities. Also rolled oats ditto. Natural diet is insects, baby birds and seeds. Some pet shops have mealworms which they really like. My maggies like hard boiled egg (!!) and small bits of cheese and rolled oats. Mince and bacon is far too fatty and is about the worst possible apparently.
Fuck me that’s a relief.
Ol’ girl and boy left some snail poison (metaldehyde) out, blew over shit fell out and the resident magpie had a go at it apparently. I was livid.
Hadn’t seen it for 2 days, but it just rocked up looking pretty worse for wear still kicking though and eating. Poor thing took a hit but seems okay.
Been feeding this thing for 20+ years and would be devastated if that’s how it went out.
Phew (for now I hope).
Oh damn hopefully everything is ok! That’s nasty stuff
Oh my, I’m so glad she’s still around!! I hope she comes proper good.
I’m glad all is well mate ❤️
