Cool Crafts with Bailey: Create Your Own Card
I’m scared!! lol do you recommend leaving it food in a furtheest part across where I sit in my gazebo? He’s been going in there like I’m not even there and eating my cats food in mg cat tent lol in the gazebo and I don’t mind feeding it - I’m like Snow White ovef here but this is a new one for me! I said I wanted a farm & to take care of my land and sea animal souls and well this is the jersey shore so I have the groundhog , raccoon , 2 squirrels my 5 cats , 4 indoor , so I feel like I should do that but what should I feed him. & should I continue leaving food in the back part of my yard and well Still not have food on the side I had .- I can feed her and bring it right in , and I already buy peanuts by the barrel for my squirrels and birds plus cardinal food and now I gel like maybe it’s a she and she’s gonna have babies and I would like to have them here just wanted to see how to go about it safely for all of us! Btw all the animals are always together it seems ! The raccoon groundhog and this guy plus the cats all play I’ve watched them run thru my squirrels tunnels I made 😂😂😂😂 ok oversharing!! If anyone would like to see the videos I took of them all I’ll post them on my community tab. ! And tag this channel. !
I’m in New Jersey south jersey and a nice backyard with plenty of plants and I recently acquired a possum whose beautiful looks just like yoir puppet ! I love him! He’s medium size & yes I have left out cat food for my outside cat & they seem to hang out ! I just wanted to make sure he wasn’t going to attack me ! Also a groundhog and raccoon guy but the last two days this cute pretty not dirty guy or girl! Ok I’m so glad that he’s cool’ I have a video of him walking towards me haha’
Best advice. If they don't cause damage besides smell at night....no biggie. Call me crazy, but the odor of a skunk in small amounts like that at night doesn't bother me. Why do they smell when they're walking around? Are they just spraying a little to mark their territory?
Where can I get one of those?
I wouldn't mind sharing my large outdoor space with skunks, IFF the smell and risk of getting sprayed wasn't there. I know thiols, acetates and sulfides are the main olfactory offenders here. Is there any way, via diet or otherwise, to lessen the animals production of these substances?
It’s eating my green bean leaves. Plant killer!!
I have had Skunks under my shed for more than 6 years now. I have only discovered where they were living 2 weeks ago! Coming out of my garage one night was a new experience in the dark. I nearly stepped on him/her/it and the Skunk seemed to be as terrorized as I was because both of us took off in opposite directions! An outside light came in handy later!
when I brush my collies I use the hair around my dahlias so they don't eat them
3:15 What a coincidence. That is the same exact 3-part strategy I use when my co-workers ask me to take on a project I don't want to do.
I got a great idea. Come and take them to your house!!!!!!
If i place a brick over the nest to keep my dogs out from digging is that okay? Can the baby bunnies still breathe?
How sweet. Thanks!
In Illinois they don’t allow that i found a baby with broken legs
Humane harassment, I love it! A number of years ago our dog was sprayed, what a mess! Recently we had a mother with babies under our shed. Fortunately we no longer have any pets but we were still concerned since we found a dead skunk in the yard with a frothy mouth, yikes! I did some research and learned all the things you reviewed. We were patient and they have moved on. Thanks for the good advice. 😊
I feed mine❤❤
My problem is my dog cannot go in the yard at night to do her last pee of the day… and she barks at the skunk…
If you have a dog in the yard. You can’t wait for him/her to be sprayed…
I feel this is the city’s problem we pay taxes and if we don’t they throw us out they should be responsible for removing this animals I’m pissed.
They are so cute 🥺🥰❤❤
The one I have has dug a hole down the foundation of the front of my house behind my bushes. Its right where my waterline enters my home. I need them to go. I started to play Coyotes sound at the window and try to bother them.., I am going to have my son cut back the bushes on the end so they are more exposed and looking into traps or somewhat to catch them so they wont return
A Duke 220 conibear solved my hog hound problem in less than 3 hours.
Liberal idiot
First you give it a name. Then you give it some foodz. Then you can give it some scritches.
For their size, they are a major destructive pest. Like little bitty feral hogs. We can't have any food plants, and they eat our flowers, too. They graze like deer, a few bits here, some over there, etc. Deer, groundhogs, rabbits, voles, insects, birds. We can grow marigolds, nothing likes them. Various types of cosmos, etc.
I catch mine in a havahart and then take it swimming. They are very destructive for us farmers.😢
Mine are too smart for this trap.
This is such bad advise lmao
What about Pine-Sol?
They ate all my flowers!
I have a few in my yard and they just are the coolest. I sit on my patio and they come by and watch me . They are so cool. Cute as heck too. Between them and the racoons and the possums and wild kittys is a great show. I love it.
There's a groundhog who's addicted to our chicken's food, and will invade the run during the day multiple times to eat it. We have a treadle feeder now because we had a rat infestation IN the run at one point, and after I closed off the run, which is mostly chicken wire and furring strips, it came in through the henhouse nesting box area, freaking out the hens. So I closed the run off completely, and now we've discovered that it broke into the run--I had it cornered up there, looking at the hole in the wall it'd made, when it dashed out through a hole in the door that I didn't see. So it's a large problem, because having a large rodent breaking into the run to eat their food is bad enough, it opens the run for other predators like raccoons, possums, foxes, and weasels to eat the chickens themselves at night! I finally opened up the run and put a large brick on the feeder to keep it closed, and will set a Have A Heart trap tomorrow with fermenting cantaloupe, which I hear they really enjoy, and put it back in the woods behind the run in hopes that the groundhog will go for it instead of their food. It sucks for the hens, though, because they get hungry during the day, so I put food for them on our porch right outside the door, instead, and wonder how long it will be before the groundhog might come there, too. The only burrow I've discovered is across the street, in wilderness next to a creek area, and it roams in multiple backyards on this side of the street. It is cute, but super quick and ravenous and it does not respect boundaries at all.
It's almost 1am and my dog was just sprayed in the face. Rule #1 is not an option
Thanks. My folks have a huge problem with these critters and nothing is working to get rid of them
I have it looks like a young opossum that comes in my porch and eats and drinks the cat food that i keep out. I named her Blossom. She doesn't seem scared of me. I go out the door and she is maybe 3-4ft away. I don't mind here coming here at all lol my 5 cats don't seem to mind either.
Skunks don't like to spray so they'll not spray if given the choice. So as long as you don't startle them and even if you do startled them if you quietly just back away they will not spray. They would rather run away from you. So just better to leave them alone everything she says is so true
Question if I blast heavy metal down will it move on faster
Do they leave after they have there babies ?
Do skunks ever leave gifts, like some birds do? There was a rock (2.5"?) on my back step this morning. It rained just before dark last night, so the step was clear at that time. I've had shoes go missing off the back step a few times, but read that foxes run off with shoes. Do all skunks spray? These have only been coming around a couple of months or so, but I have never smelled skunk odor. I don't know if there is anything cuter than a tiny skunks. Such fancy creatures! ❤
But my dog can’t go out and pee without chasing the skunk and he gets sprayed OMG
This was an interesting video. We see skunks around often. I had no idea you could tuck the tail so they don't spray. Thry are the cutest little things!
Just caught one in my backyard
Good ole 17 hornet or 22-250 helps them cash in their life insurance fast.
is it okay to bring the baby to a new location and drop it off since our cat brought it to us and prowls our yard constantly?
The groundhog problem I have is that they are digging into the basement
NEAT vids. Not need. Pissed off YT and it won't let me edit it. Must be the ref to catapults... 🙈
I clicked on the wrong video rules #1 do nothing lmfao
MOTH BALLS IN PACKETS ?
Nothing likes mothballs, but they melt from the rain. Just like solid deer repellant.
is that colonial plastic? lol
I had to pick wild baby bunny stray cat almost made it dinner
I'm so sick of these animal activists harping about their animal babies! If you don't get rid of the offending animal babies grow up and now you have an infestation. Harmful to pets structures and gardens that is YOUR FOOD SOURCE! GET over yourself lady you are NOT helping!
I would call dead chickens, ravaged eggs and chewed extension cords…damage
