I changed the oil in my car this morning. I dropped the oil filter in the engine bay and the oil went everywhere. So don't do that.

It's sweet, too...sort of like melted vanilla ice cream.  Doesn't leave an aftertaste on your tongue, either.

It was heaps of fun. They were really easy to ride, and very cool, in a completely uncool, geeky kind of way.

 


 

 

What on earth is a Mickey Mouse helmet? LMAO.

Cayugas were the ones that I had so many broken. Maybe that's the forbidden breed? ep.gif

Who knows, quackers... But i guess we will only have a total of 4 cayugas, unless we buy ducklings from the feed store.
My menagerie includes 5 horses, 3 dogs, 4 cats, 32 geese (dewlap toulouse & african) and 10 ducks (muscovy, ancona, cayuga & silver appleyard).
