Near the duck pens looking up towards the house

and finally the gully. It was a raging torrent of water during the floods but has been bone dry for agers now.

I'm struggling to enjoy my Chickens. I think I resent them in some way, all but Booker that is. They're just replacements for giraffe

I find myself thinking no, you're not allowed to (scratch, sit, fat etc) there/that, that's giraffe's. And with Booker in the nest so i rarely see her, I look out into the yard and see all these strangers. They just don't feel like mine. Three of them don't even have names, and I name everything. It seems my young Yokohama is a male (the saga trying to get a hen continues) but I'm not even upset. I just think good, don't have to keep her/him

I would get out of Chickens all together but I can't get rid of Booker and she needs companions, and a rooster to protect her, and my partner has his heart set on the marans so I guess the strangers are here to stay

Sorry to unload on you guys like this :-\
Awwww hun, chin up x
 
Oh pinky, I think you just need some one on one time with the new guys. Make yourself a cuppa , put some treats in your pocket and go outside and sit with your chooks. They all have little personalities, your just not looking. :hugs

Just to show there really are lovely people in the world still they guy i got one lot off pekins of that aussie post smashed half of is sending me a replacement dozen. I told him it was not necessary as it was not his fault but he insisted on sending more. Maybe there is hope i will get some pekins after all. Only have 2 eggs left now in the bator and one is looking iffy. They were both from the wet alfoil ones not the other way round as i first though.,

oh satay, that does help :) I have just the fella too if you don't mind waiting for him to grow up. This is the one I would keep if I could. He's gonna be big I reckon.
