We have a Malard Drake who tried to serve every duck on the place even if they were larger - one afternoon he tried it with an Aylesbury, she got up and walked off with him hanging on - most entertaining
Our menagerie consists of
Copper Black marans - 7 chicks 4 weeks ago
Indian Game Birds 4 chicks hatched 4 weeks ago + approx 20 asstd ages, these are bred for meat - they are slow to mature but have heavy breast - I also have s great cockerel who has done well for us this year and is resting (...
Good morning chickhan,
It is different! The pace of life is slower, lots of space, but almost impossible to earn a living unless you are a fluent french speaker or a needed trade.
We are retired and manage to live on our pensions despite the decline in the euro. Quality of life for is is great...
I was born in Holland - Father Dutch - mother English and my wife is totally British, before we moved out here we lived just south of Manchester in the UK - been here 4 years and have the peace of the countryside and the space to keep all our animals - we also have 4 dogs and 2 cats
Many thanks...
