Flock/Life Journey's 2019

Happy St. Patrick's Day :hugs

Jordan was saying we could get a pig but I said no. My focus is on my chickens so if he wants a pig he can look after it. :pop Watch this space lol.

Hi:frow... wow.. that’s a lot of birds:th
 
Flock Update:
The coop is still a muddy mess. Its been sprinkling on and off so its not getting time to dry out enough.
I had to clean out their food as it had mud in it. Luckily it was full so they could eat it from the top.

I treated my ladies today. Mixed Vegetables. They went crazy as always. I feel bad its been storming in the afternoons so no free ranging for them.

Collected 1 egg so far today.

Filled up my ladies water. Yes, they are spoiled at the moment and get bottled water like we drink.

Love it! What was in today's mix? Are there certain veggies to stay away from?
 
Flock Update: I got my little ones crickets today! It was hilarious! :lau When i first put them in they freaked and were sitting on top of each other to get away from scary little crickets!! :gig:gig Then Relish went out bravely and pecked at them and realized that they were good and caught one! Then she was running around chirping up a storm and then the chase was on for the others! :love:gig

On a blah note we learned that the yard grading makes it impossible for us to put the new coop where we planned... back to the drawing board!!! :barnie:caf

Ohhh sounds like my dad. Nothing is ever done right or he doubts my abilities. Like my job. He didnt think I was good enough to do my job. But im more successful them my parents were over. They were so hard on me but my younger brother he doesn't need to do anything. Doesn't need to work or get a licence. Me I had too.

Ohhh they once said my house will be a mess. My house is clean as plus I work full time.
Wow that seems so unfair! I’d say my dad is equally hard on all three of us sisters. My youngest sister is only 10 and my dad keeps telling her she will be flipping burgers til she retires because she doesn’t want to spend her spring break doing extra homework.

Tonight's Dinner:
Jordan made surf and turf. :drool:drool:drool
The garlic sauce was soooo good :love

. I hadn’t heard of surf n turf but that looks delicious!

Hemingway loved polydactyl cats and had a large amount of them. So, eventually everyone started calling them Hemingway cats.

Interesting!

Look for deals on pressure cookers. You can get stovetop versions fairly reasonably priced.
. Thank you!

The guinea that got hit by a car sadly passed away last night :hmm

The hatchery sent me a message this morning saying they’ve changed the date to the 12th of April for the aylesbury ducklings :idunno


I’ve moved momma duck and her three ducklings to the chick pen, will take photos tomorrow.
. Sorry about the hen :(

Nice list and thanks for sharing pics!

Good Morning Lovely,
Ohh the will power is real :hugs
My partner wont take me anywhere that I might see chicks and be able to buy them lol. :duc
Theres this farm you get to pat pigs and farm animals and buy them too. Jordan wants to go so bad then he says ohhh your not buying more chickens yet darling. Im like why? Then his like well we aren't going lol. :oops:
Nooo way would I be able to have 10 acres and only 3 chickens, all hens at that. I really think I’d go crazy if I didn’t get to be chicken crazy on that much land lol. At least let you get one bird per acre!

Ain’t she the cutest?! My uncle bought me a little young Mini Rex velveteen doe (female) rabbit. :woot I got her late last night. I was in Walmart after midnight getting rabbit supplies:th :wee :love

. She is beautiful! The Velveteen Rabbit is one of my favourite children’s books and I think the bunny in it is a Rex.

Omg shes sooo cute!!! Im so jealous! We aren't aloud them as pets here.
What are you going to call her?
. Are pet rabbits banned in all of Australia or only where you live?

. They are indeed spoiled!

Ron somehow I didn’t quote your post...happy st. Patrick’s day to you too! DS is sleeping in his green onesie and I didn’t even realize that tomorrow is st. Patrick’s day.

We drove to Tucson to visit my cousins and on the way back stopped by TSC which we noticed along the highway. My dad took pics of the baby poultry.
