    This is a good tweet in the sense it's been dunked on by people of all political persuasions. It's helped bring us together.https://twitter.com/ploughmansfolly/status/1486886372992552966 …

        "35 laying hens" is strongly resonant with "30-50 feral hogs", in my ears. Is it possible this is the same guy?

        The feral hogs are likely to eat the hens.
