Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

[ozexpat]

OK I trimmed the heck out of it but I cant just post without the pix.

What breed of Chicken is Scooby Do..... He is soooo pretty....

And These pigs they have spots are these the landrace pigs you were talking about?

Just curious.

He is a Blue Andalusian from @hillfloweranch

He is the son of scooby doo (who was killed by coyotes) thus he is named in honor of his prize winning blood line - Scooby Too

He did however try and get his cut from the 4 piglets sold before he left from Lillian (Bernie lost petty cash privs) but she refused.

Good for Lilian!!

May be she had an inkling he was not coming back

Its a good day so far at Cocobeach

The second to last piglet sold.(second piglet since Dodong took over) at 2500 pesos - last day od pay period

I am finalizing sales of chickens to be shipped from Bacolod Airport next weekend totalling 35000 pesos.

There are several more sales I am in various stages of negotiation.

Dodong will be looking at 2000 pesos in his next 2 paychecks and 1000 in June and December. His lump sums could become pretty decent.

Today is Lillian and Dodong's day off and Ariel is feeding animals, turning eggs and putting up 300 bamboo pusogs into the piggery ceiling untill we use them on the fence between house and farm







The wife and kids have been at the Sinulog Festival

Just following along. We're having some fantastic weather and I've been doing spring cleaning around the property. Started peppers/tomatoes indoors. Probably too early, but last year was a total flop, so I want time to restart if needed

We're remodeling our bathroom (have been for 2 years but, uh... yeah) Walls have been textured last week, we put the floor in, new toilet... today is sanding and painting I believe.
