I was wondering if he didn't pitch because you make him feel a bit redundant with all you do for your horse before he arrives. Lol. Hope he recovers soon.

He knows that we are pretty ' hands on ' and he did give us advice over the phone. Technology is marvelous , in that we were able to send pics to him .

Howdy folks

FreeRanging Hen well, at least you have a name for the little ‘singer’ if it turns out to be a rooster .. Thomas!

AussieChics I am so sorry to read about your egg loss.

We have a family of Crows in the back yard. On many occasions I have found the gal’s feed bowl nowhere near the run and actually at the back fence where the Crows have wandered into the run when open for free range and stolen the dish, dropping it at the back fence.

If I am scrambling eggs for the girls, I have the bowl in one hand and the other hand is occupied by trying to keep my cat from eating them! I let him lick the fork

vehve beautiful pics!

Fancy aaaw, not a good day for you, sorry to hear that

I hope the formal went well.

satay and K Spot got everything crossed here for some good news from both of you and of course, pictures

In Bambrook Bantam news … while not being woken at 04:30am by baby rooster crows, I am been woken by Blondie’s ‘stop bashing me mum’ squawks! GodCilla (as she is now affectionately known) tolerates Blondie all day, no fights, no pecks nothing but she insists on starting the day with a not so gentle reminder that she is the boss! Of course, this would not be an issue if Blondie stayed out of GodCilla’s way but Blondie apparently has a short memory and does not remember how the previous day started!

GodCilla is not laying yet. While not sitting on the nest all day, she is still semi-broody and will hunker down on anyone else’s egg if I do not get it out fast enough.

She tolerates Dusty and LuLu sitting in the double nest box to lay but whenever Blondie goes to lay, GodCilla sits in the coop a metre or so away from Blondie and squawks continually until Blondie has finished. “Intruder, intruder, intruder in the nest box” over and over again. Drives Joel and I crazy so I have no idea what it is doing to poor ole Blondie!

Final bit of news .. I was checking out the IT Team Calendar and noted that no-one from the Support Team had put in for leave at Christmas!! Guess who now finishes work on the 19th of December and does not return until the 5th of Jan! Wooo hooo!! (sorry AussieChics

Oh goodness, sounds like Bubbles and the Agony Aunts (my two BSL's). Poor Bubbles is right down on the pecking order, but she always tries to push her luck with everyone. Seems as though the Agony Aunts have taken it on themselves to torment and give her stern peckings when they think she is out of line.

I hope you enjoy your time off! I myself only have the public holidays off, but that was by design as I want to save my leave for when I get my new puppy in a few months time
