    Merry Christmas to you all! I am so thankful for the technology we have that allows us to connect from around the globe. In the coming year may the great majority of your hatchlings be female, your roosters be virile, and your predators find somewhere else to eat!

    Dear Oz, You have earned a good night's sleep! So glad the sow survived. Great job all round. Take time to step back and take a deep breath and look at all that's been accomplished. Have a very merry Christmas with all your families :)

    Florry died. 8th Dec

    So sorry for your loss! These feathered creatures worm their way deep into our hearts. I dare say six years old is oodles of human years. I'm sure she had a wonderful life being cared for by people like you and your husband.

    When I've log on to Backyard and seen the number of unread posts on your thread lately my first thought has been...oh no..something has gone wrong with Oz...then I'm relieved to find that it's just you stuttering again. Hope today there was someone out your way singing the old nursery rhyme...
