central - east central Minnesota - | Gottlieb - 5/26/2013 10:23 when they were fed GM corn and when they switched to non-gmo their problem stopped. This what he say anyway. And farmer in Minnesota say when he fed non-gmo he sees fewer hog illnesses and deaths. Ja, is anybody seeing better litters or not? I tried to feed squirrels gmo corn and they stuck their nose up...like as if they could smell something...formaldehyde? I don't know, but they wouldn't eat it. Dead of winter, too. It's like all these independent pilot programs are going on globally and with internet we connect information and compare ourselves, ja rather than just to listen to one or two corporations who serve their own financial interest.
This past winter, it was a harder one for wildlife - just not used to snow, capped with rain/ice and more snow and rain/ice. Too difficult for them to scratch through the deep crusted snow to get to feed.
I had gmo corn I feed to birds along a tree/fence/property line. Had one squirrel show up, then another - within 2 weeks, I'm pretty sure I had squirrels from neighboring towns (which by the way, are 5 and 7 miles away) showing up. It was interesting seeing squirrels comming across open fields (from small wood/low lands) to my place to eat.
Had turkeys, pheasants, red squiirels, gray squirrels, crows, ravans, mice, blue jays and other song birds, racccoon and even deer eating the gmo corn. While the wildlife isn't scarest around me, I don't have great habitat for over wintering.
Your squirrels must be well fed, to turn up their noses.
My wild life must have been pretty hungery, to come such distances, too feed at my place. |
ok fine....non-gmo corn is wonderful,
