    My hottest are Dragon's Breath peppers. Unofficially #2 in the world at 2.48 million SHU. I have quite a few around the 1 million mark.

    I know I can ship a 1lb box for like $12. I will ask my dude at the post office tomorrow.

    I showed my buddy. He thinks they may be out of his range of comfort. LMAO. I told him he was weak yet a jalapeno sets me off haha.

    Dad and I went out to Ohio yesterday and came back this afternoon. I did happen upon this doe this morning. I smelled it just as I was going passed the pond on a trail to one of my setups. I first looked around the pond thinking EHD. The doe was about 5 yards off the trail on the other side but only about 15 yards from the pond. The eyes were gone, and the maggots were at the stomach. I'm not sure what caused the shoulder gash but that's the only issue I saw with it. Do you think it's EHD?

    How far from a road? Could have been hit by a car with that gash in shoulder.

    It was about 30 yards off the road up hill. It's a very windy dirt road with mainly Amish traffic. I thought initially maybe hit by a vehicle too, but the crows, vultures and coyotes would have been all over it. As of yesterday, there were 7 EHD reported in Somerset township.

    This guy is lacking in the antler department, but he sure doesn't miss any meals!

    He's got good mass. Definitely an older deer.
