That means cleaning the soil, tho. Otherwise they go zombie.

you even have to try to cook my new friends?

I don't want you to get too attached to things. Hurt them before they have the chance to hurt you.

Also, their antlers are worth the most when they are velvety, but in that case you have to sedate them before you saw them (iirc), plain antlers are not worth as much buuut much easier to get.

Couldn't tell you for the meat, their milk is quite fat and there's not that much, I think it's often turned into cheese in Laplands. Fur, leather, don't think there's much interest.

they just sort of sit in their stands.


i mean, by definition i guess they are standing in their stands. but look how silly the phrase "standing in their stands" looks.

i'm not selling any of that stuff. they'll have to shake their antlers off like deer because i'm not sawing anything off of them unless they ask me to.

Well, they do, so you can maybe pick up antler carving.
And milk, no harm in trying, maybe.

Not yet, have you seen the price of flats back home? Impossible to live.

if they shake them off fine, but i will not be holding the poor things down and sawing. they don't deserve that scary thing happening to them.

My buddy's looking for a house, no renovation (at least not urgent), with a decent yard, Laval, maybe a bit on the north shore... He's been looking for about 4 months, everything is either kinda lame, or the listed price is 500k and it goes for 600...

The male shake theirs off toward October or November, after rut, the female I think it's about March.

And I agree about the velvet thing, it's one of those traditional medicine folk tales, anyway. Like rhino horn.
