Always the neighboors. And, it's usually just one set. Put your chicken coop and yard where it blocks their view of your tractor. Or, put up a $200 shelter awning to cover it. The mower deck is also a great idea. I live in a sub-divided farm that was cut into 20 acre sections (still "ag" zoned). The neighbors to our west are the only folks on the whole road that don't shoot or hunt. This has become our friction point. The first time after we moved in that I went into the woods to shoot (with a .54 caliber flintlock) the woman came over and asked my wife "how long does he keep this up"? Bless her heart, my wife said "all the 30 years I've known him." (She hunts, also). Well, I'll never get used to that!" (Jumping theatrically each time there was a "boom"). So what do these people choose to have as pets? There free-range cats and two pit bulls in an "invisible fence". Now, whenever their dogs take on to barking (which is whenever a bird flies or caterpillar crawls) I say "I'll never get used to that". Our dog is a Kerry Blue Terrier and seldom barks. I once caught him pooping beside their deck, and was laughing so hard I never got around to yelling at him (smart enough to know they were locked inside . . . the little stinker). I've got a chicken wire fence up well within my lines, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to put up a goat fence on the property just to keep Jake in and to avoid any problems on the occasions the bantams jump the run fence (which is frequently). We do try to keep the peace, but I will not be denied WHY I moved out to the "boonies" in the first place.
