Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

Just out of interest, here are the rainfall totals around here so far this year-

That looks pretty nicely spread out. We didn't get any rain in July here, but the past 72 hours have been a bit different.

These buckets were still dry Monday night.

I got my Yokohama hatching eggs today

. 6 have no cracks, 2 have hairlines, 2 have extensive hairlines and 2 are completely crushed. Pretty good I think, especially for minimal packaging/ padding.

Also Ms Frizzle went broody so she has got 8 eggs under her.

Anyone else incubating?

I bought a big bale of rice hulls today - works well on the acres of mud I have in my chook runs.  
We have had 2 dry days here, so the mud was starting to solidify a bit, but more bloody rain'
forecast for the weekend!

We've had one nice day , even got the horses rugs off for a while. The horses make a mess around the gates, it gets very slippery when you are trying to get past them with their breakfast. My chook runs are under cover so they are pretty good. I hope it dries up over there in the next 3 weeks , my daughter is competing at werribee.

Good luck with that, but September is usually the wettest month in Melbourne.

Same here, they should feel at home. They managed to get stables for the first 2 weeks but only outdoor pens for the other 2 weeks. At Aus champs the tasmanian and Victorian riders may have an unfair advantage over the other states.

Least not all was lost Luke. My bator is empty for now. Have been hatching all winter so taking a little break. Good luck with your hatches.

I'm just working on getting everyone back into their respective pens for breeding. I already have orders for SLW eggs, I'd like a new roo, kind of ironic being as I am trying to get rid of 6 SLW cockerels. 2 roos going out this weekend.
