Madman, i'm not sure how i would square killing a defenseless roe stag, with the ethics of an organic wildlife garden. Before it was cold, word would have got round the rest of the wildlife, that this is not the safe haven they thought and before you know it my garden would be devoid of anything more interesting than a slug. The end result would be that i would have to do some gardening:cry: now i have been cultivating my wildlife garden for the last 4/5 years, and have a wide range of creatures that visit me, to eat the brambles, nettles etc. The stag was devouring the bramble leaves along with a bit of grass, as i left for work, leaving the succulent daffs and primroses alone. Please please don't suggest killing the wee little beastie anymore, after all its taken over 15 years for one to come into my little garden. Also i can't bear the thought of having to do any gardening:smilie13: Mmmmmmmmmmm i wonder if i could charge a fee and let joe public come and see him, er following on from that i wonder if longleat has any spare critters:beer:

Lucky my next door neighbour has a big pond, and i have loads of frogs and toads hopping around all over the place, nice idea though about hiring him out for xmas, will have to try and catch him and train him to harness, hey thinking about it i could hire him out to you fishermen to carry your gear when going on a bit of a hike. Provided the payment was in stella of course:beer:
