Ribh's D'Coopage

What is a Campine? pardon my ignorance.

It's an Australian word for trouble.

What is it made off? Is it strong enough to fill with potatoes and not break?
I made, or rather bodged together, something similar to carry straw in. I used fishing net. I had a lot of trouble explaining to them in the main house that wheelbarrows really weren't designed to carry loosed straw over bumpy ground. They still do it. There is a trail of straw left behind every time.

It's 100% cotton. Theoretically you should be able to fill it with spuds with no problems. I haven't tested it yet. I think Macrame twine would work too. It stretches quite a lot ~ more than you'd suppose.

Has anyone here, ever wake up in a bad mood? Just a feeling of depression? And not knowing why?
Good morning, by the way.

Either I'm depressed all the time, or I've never suffered from it. Angry sure, but not what I understand as depression.

If you put some inside a cat toy or a little cloth bag my bet is the first cat (sorry, I forgot your cats' names) will enjoy that and bat it around and have a lot of fun. The little Tortie lady, not so much,
They don't all go spacey with cat nip sometimes they just love to play with it and rub it on their faces which is what the first cat is doing.

Jasper is the Burmese and Mishka is the Tortoiseshell. If I made Jasper a cloth bag he would probably eat it.

Yes, it's usually after I've been over-busy. But I'm never depressed in a clinical sense. Instead, I'm just too tired for joy. A meal usually sorts me out.

I totally read that as "Campines" not companies!!

You really are a crazy chook lady!

I really loved that rooster. (I see him in my mind, every time I look at that Blue Ribbon on the wall.

I’m really sorry about BEN.

The golden is my Campine, Ha'penny.

One of my silver Campines, Aoife.

They have a pretty upright stance like game birds & there is no difference in the feathering between males & females.
Two colours: gold & silver.

Does Ha’penny have electric blue ear-lobes or is that just the light?

I’m really sorry about BEN.

Some days I wished I never have shown him to our group BYC. It really does hurt me a lot to lose him, even being reminded of him still causes pain.
