fether in pellets.jpg I found this feather coming out of my pellet bag this morning while poring it into the hopper.
Fireside ultra pellets.
No pet birds in house and the cats have never been outside to bring one in. The bag did not seem to be breached anywhere. I sifted around the hopper and the bag to make sure the carcass was not in there.
Funny stuff

Then guess what my wife brought home for dinner?
A pre cooked bird from Hannaford:eek:

Don't know and don't know.
I had a large bee`s nest in my termination a found in late September that I had to smoke out. I thought I had a pic on my phone but I cant find it.
 
Sorry don't believe it, lol, feather looks in great shape for being in a bag of dusty pellets.
