I like the curtain you made - nice job!
I like the deer in your backyard as well. We get all kinds of wildlife here too, we live in the country. The last two years, we got black bears that "investigated" the chickens. I walked in on one once, it had smashed through a window in the chicken shed - just a small one who was curious, but enough to scare the bejeebers out of me and out of the chickens! Knock on wood, the bears haven't come by (yet?) this year... but they may in summer when they try to fatten up for winter and the berries are all gone. Of all wild animals that I've met, a black bear is the scariest...
We have skunks too, but for some reason they don't spray us - they just waddle away.
Oh, on the very cute side, a baby bunny did find its way into the chicken shed today! It was very very cuddly looking! Don't worry, it found its way safely out!
One of the garden centres in our area sells the corn in 50lb bags - they call it deer food or chicken scratch - so maybe you could find it there.
