I get the same thing with fresh eggs. Tell people if they will bring me back fhe carton i will give them another dozen eggs. Know whar i get? All kinds of comments about how much better my eggs are than store bought eggs. Does anyone ever return an egg carton? Nope. Not a single, solitary person. Some have even tried to guilt me into more eggs. You can only imagine how well that goes over. There are takers and there are givers. I'm a nice chick but I'm done being everybody's Mom. If i offer to do something nice for you it'd be wise to not try to take advantage of me because i don't HAVE to be nice to anybody.
Hey I brought you a few cartons. I have more cartons!

I’ve quit trying to give any wild meat away locally. Every time I do, people practically want me to cook it and feed it to them. My Grandfather always had the same problem with garden produce...:censored: ingrates...
When I hunted on a DMAP, we had to take 40 does a year. Never had an issue with people taking them.
We field dressed them of course to cool the meat down, but actually had the city of Medford find out about it and they had folks come out and take the deer to be given to needy folks in town. A real good benefit for some of those folks.
No pigs around us, so have not had the Issue about giving them away.

Well I will start saving you the ones I come across instead of tossing them out.

Annie I feel you. I try to help people out like that and you are right they just shut their brains off sometimes.
I distanced myself from all those idiots and I am better off for it.
I have a bunch of egg cartons..My friends do bring them back and they actually bring me more cartons on top of that.

My chickens slacked off and I ate them.
I have a new batch of 6 hens.. we will see how these work out.. they are 1/2 grown now. should not be long until I see some eggs.

I haven't read all the replies, but I did read you were gonna trap the hogs, but I would love come out and try to shoot a few if I could. Maybe if you have a few stragglers, it would be my buddy, my son and myself.
