Oooh I hope you have some more chickies
Thankyou We need it, at least this wind has pushed the smoke haze away. Just hope it rains now to stop what fires are left and doesn't start another one

Satay, take it easy. Did he offer you a moonboot? I have just had a friend have to take 2 months off work with a broken bone in her foot. She tripped over her dog!! Dangerous place - home.

Hope you get rain Sandee. Hope we get some here as well, it is trying to at the moment, but nothing in it.

Yeah same here Rexy, it is VERY trying lol
At least it will be a nice cool drive out to Canowindra to see an elderly friend and neighbour who's in hospital. He just lost his wife 6 months ago, I do dare say we'll be saying our goodbyes to him as well

Think my girls are suffering from S.A.D.

That cold change that came through Syndey yesterday has turned 4 out of 5 little ladies broody.

I see an egg drought ahead...Time to enforce some restrictions - no egg eating between 10am and 4pm.

 

[SandeeC]

lol Bicudo, we are down to 8c of a night time at the moment Glorious
Bad when you have to be on restrictions hey

They're funny sensitive little soles.

They go off the lay when it gets to hot and then as soon as the weather changes they go broody.

Just can't win.

Well so far we have 2 blue laced red Wyandotte,2 blue / black silkies and 1 coro and a very mean gold laced Wyandotte momma. She bit me! Oh Charlie, that hurt.

I am pretty lucky with my girls then, they just turned 1 in December, started laying in May last year and haven't gone off the lay once yet. Even in our minus 6 temp during winter
Must be cause the axe and chopping block are right outside their coop haha

No they did say they could plaster it as it is just where the big toe joins the foot and just above that but then i couldn't get it wet.. It's not too bad just bruised and swollen .
