Whichever one is proper in the sentence.   Duh.

That's the important thing, to never use one inappropriately.

Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I voted for "they're." Why? Because I have this gang of bunnies that lives in the woods near my house and they're selfish jerks. They're always messing with my vegetable garden. If they don't watch out, they're going to find themselves wishing they never went to my garden, because I am going deposit some special little poison treats there that are going to mess their little tummies up.

In response to another fabulous poll.  

Since this season has ended, this board has become a joke and a distraction.  I'll be back next fall and hopefully the negativity and self importance have subsided.

I suspect you also got an A in freshman English. 


And this poll would qualify as BOOM!  ROASTED! Well done.

The correct version.  Most of us went to Marquette, right??

Blood Meal is a great source of Nitrogen from your plants, is organic, and will keep herbivores away from your plants because the bunnies will keep away from the smell of blood.

Any foxes/wolves/dogs may end up digging in your garden trying to find the source of the blood, but you have to deal with the problems you have without worrying too much about potential future threats.

You can pick blood meal up at garden stores and use it as a top-dressing on the soil.  If you poison bunnies I will hate you forever.

As would my daughter. They're safe. Their protector, my daughter, will ensure that there is no foul play. (Like that?)

Last year we tried marigolds and black pepper, to no avail. This year, I may just plant jalapenos.

1/4 bottle or so of Tabasco sauce, 1 garlic section, 1 egg, tablespoon cooking oil, mix with water and put in pint spray bottle. Spray it right on the plants or around them, works great for deer and rabbits. lasts  for weeks. Same stuff you buy at home depot for $20 a small bottle

There are times when I use their, and there are times when I use they're, but most of the time I use there.  
So there.

Whatever is correct!  I can say, coincidently, that my daughter came home from school yesterday talking about writing haiku's in class.  I'm sure they were nothing like Warthog's.
