    I know you are south of US-30 and country is acceptable but we are in da hood up here. Gangster rap about ANdy's Hi-Points, pimping Kitty, and Clif45's "balls" ride only.

    Oh, sorry. I'm so embarrassed. Here, this is for you North of 30 boys in da'hood.

    Who was the member that was selling MREs (by the case i think).
    How much were you asking for? How many are in the case? Was it just the main dish or the sides and/or drinks/deserts/etc?

    Thanks!

    I think they only sell them in the spring. Bunnies, chicks, and ducks.

    No doubt S'ville has some town ordnance banning the keeping of animals in the town limits. Bunch of city slickers.

    I always wanted to keep ducks and chickens but the wife is deathly afraid of them. I thought the midwest was full of farmers daughters, dang it. How'd I end up with a prissy city girl.

    :xmad:

    I would say "shoot me now" but on a gun forum that's probably asking for trouble.

    Anyone know where to buy live ducks around here? Like eatin-ducks.
    I've been craving duck but they are so high at a store. Like $20-$30 per duck.
    I just figured buying live from a farm has to be more affordable since I'm not squeamish about "doing the deed".

    WOLF LAKE!! Plenty of ducks all around for free if you don't mind cleaning them.....

    I'm pretty surre Blythes in Valpo is $8 for an hour. Plus $1 each if you need eyes/ears. But if there's no crowd they let you stay as long as you want. I've never been asked to leave.

    Think valpo blythes is 9-10 an hour also.

    & thus why I have yet to include a price point since we still have conflicting reports. Can't trust a dogs to bring back reliable data. :D
