I'm ashamed to say this guy lives in Texas.

From Craigslist:

Free Raccoon Eggs

The response:

Not Raccoon Eggs

Davidson told me how this works. It turns out you have to buy so many raccoon eggs to get any free ones. ;\)

The post has been removed. What a shame. Just as I was hoping for coon eggs for breakfast.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

The original "ad" basically said:

I have raccoon eggs in my garage...at least I think they are...free to anyone who wants to come get 'em....momma gone during the day.

The Response:

"Raccoons...raccoons do not lay eggs sir. If you have eggs in your garage big enough for a raccoon to have given birth to (given that they laid eggs in the first place, which they don't) I think you might want to relocate them off your property. Who knows what they are."

The response was the best part.

The original poster might be the same guy who found Bruce's cat.
