All good here. Water came to the bottom of the street of where we live, but no further. My children live in Toowoomba and watched the tidal wave wash through their work place washing colleagues cars down the road. My girls had parked higher up that day. Other family in Toowoomba and Brisbane...

Merry Christmas Everyone!! Hope you all have a safe and wonderful Christmas. Hi elizabethbinnary, I see that no one has had a chance yet to welcome you. I'm another BrisVegas girl. Too wet at the moment, my poor girls should be ducks. Mind you they dont seem to mind the rain, it worries me most.

Hi guys. I'm still hanging around keeping an eye on things I have been reading your thread on the twins Ducky - sorry that they didnt make it. But thanks for sharing the journey with everyone. Chicken wise I havent been doing anything!! Just enjoying the girls I have. The day dream still...

Awww duckyfromoz Feel your pain - trying to do the right thing and it ends in no good Something to be learnt from it, thanks for the warning. But remember accidents happen, and that's what it was, a tragic accident.

Hi 6BlackChicks - welcome to the site.

oh gee wooklet I am sorry to hear about your dog. We do get attached to them - don't we! I am sure that the foul weather isnt helping your sadness, but spring will come. Everything is same ole, same ole here. Nothing exciting, just usual life. (Which in itself is just fine!!) Have decided that...

The rain has gone and August westerly winds have come to dry it up. Bit fresh too, temp wise!! When I went to work today I decided to let all the girls out to free range in the back yard together as the dog is secure on the back deck. A funny thing happened on my return; I came home and let...

My little chickens (well hens, but they're always your babies aren't they ) would appreciate webbed feet at the moment. My goodness we had some rain last night - I think at least 100ml here. But its stopped now - though they say it might start again. We aren't going to the Ekka (even though it...

Not mad Wooklet - you are just besotted!! And who couldn't be with such buckets of joy!!!

Yes Ducky - I have NEVER had anything to do with hatchlings!! So the whole thing seems so amazing and overwhelming to me as I read your stories. All my chooks have been point of lay or older than that girls. My mother in law used to get day old chicks, and we would take the girls out there to...

It appears such a fine science getting these little things to hatch - such a precarious beginning - if they ever even get there!! I am truly amazed - no wonder they are so precious when they arrive!! (Apart from being super cute)

Wooklet - Congratulations on Harry - love his big webbed feet, then snuggling under his toy - cute as!! Look forward to hearing & seeing the others, what an exciting time

Sounds like everyone have been busy - and we sure could use some of the rain up here - happy for you to send it up as it sounds like you have had enough. Just complaining to dear husband that everything is so dry lately. Promises of rain with nothing ever happening. Had my lil 2 year old...

Now tell me Ducky with your overcrowded lounge of ducks!! (Which look absolutely darling) Do ducks gets aggressive as they get older?? I would love to get a couple of ducks (I include the possibility in my coop plans of the future) but I am worried that they will be "snappy" as they get bigger...

Maybe instead of "pigeon english" the language between different duck breeds is "pigeon duck"

Hey Wooklet - I can see why they would be special, they are gorgeous. I am sorry you lost the others.

I had to smile at the stories re: driving. We have travelled similar paths by the sounds. But life is about learning and that's what we do, learn from our mistakes!! Thank goodness. I read about hatching and chickens and would so love to have a go at it, BUT yes what about the roosters? So I...

Well Silkiesook I suppose it is a bit fresh at times in Bris, but I like the winter more than summer so I suppose our perspectives are different Wooklet - the coops are sooo easy to put together, but are terribly expensive and small. But cute as. I have lost my cord to upload piccies from my...

Well the question arose where are the other Aussies - well I am here!! Have been enjoying listening (?) to you chat, didnt want to interrupt LOL Have missed the foul weather you received - days are gorgeous here in Bris. Talking of gorgeous so are the photos of ducklings and chicks.. Am working...
