DO you know how hard it is to find a METAL coffee can anymore? Plastic just doesn't have the same ring and range as rattling corn in a metal one!

I busted some on accident this morning and one of them was white. I don't know if it was a domesticated bird with them or an albino but it was solid white.

Never seen a white one in the wild. I was walking through day before yesterday and jumped a flock of hens.

Not really! Im all about helping somebody out if I can. If I don't need it and you do, you can have it, ESPECIALLY if Ive got nothing in it. I sold enough stuff out of that reloading buyout years ago to more than get my money back in addition to the stuff I kept out of it. The rest was just icing on the cake.

I am ready for some gobbles at first light high on a mountain ridge.
