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

Sad day here, we lost Viiru, one of our Alho's and the most productive layer of our flock, to some sort of predator. Veera, her sister, also went missing, but she returned home two hours later, intact. 

Oh no.

So sorry about Viiru, Felix. I hope you can work out which predator it was.

Thank you, that pic is from the day I got them, they have tripled in size in just the two weeks I have had them and they are almost all black now with only a little white arounds the ears and the odd white feather in the wings

yes I would agree with Sam , look like they have australorp in them.

I think Tassie would be more to my liking too climatewise if I were to move to the land down under. I don't know how you crazy Ozzies handle the +40 weather.

There are a lot of ' Dutchies ' here and it was originally known as Van Diemen's Land. Our forecast is for snow on the mountain tomorrow.

Morning folks

AussieChics it was interesting to read that your gals do not like salad; lettuce and tomato are real favourites for my banties. They love Kale. Besides meal worms and watermelon, my Silkie’s other favourite food is tomato. The others eat it; she loves it!

Have you tried chopping it into bite sized pieces? I pop the lettuce into a bowl and hack at it with the scissors for a few minutes.

Fancy the banners are beautiful; so colourful and of course, the subject matter is superb

Hi Mondari and

I am not much good at breeds but I note you have been given some good possibilities from others. I just wanted to say that they look pretty darn cute.

vehve I am so sorry to hear about Viiru

While some may think my loss is not on the same scale, bad day here also, I lost my 5 year old gold pond fish to a type of Heron. I am going to miss him/her. He/she had gotten very big, it’s gold friend is going to miss it also

Not much other news from here. Cilla is having another attempt at being broody and I am having another attempt at breaking her

The chicks are doing very well and growing ... I have penciled in a photo day for Saturday; just warning you

yeah I have one of those tupperware things that chop it up nicely. They ate it eventually just not as quickly as they would cauliflower. Weirdos

gave them mealworms for the first time yesterday! Well that turned into a reminder of who is where on the pecking order lol the chicks had a blast! 1 would find one and run with the other 2 trying to catch it. Just the entertainment I needed after work.

hope everyone has a great day! Nearly friday woohoo

Oh Teila you are always so kind. Sorry about your goldfish. I took a heap of pics yesterday of a momma duck and 14 ducklings but alas today their numbers will have thinned. I look forward to your pics.
