Rain and wind which is getting stronger and forecast to hit 50mph tomorrow.
Sylph and Mow are not going to be pleased.
We did get out in short bursts. Sylph and Mow were so pleased to be out of the coop run they put up with a lot more wet than I thought they would.

I Haven't found any cheese Yuka is happy about.

It doesn't like the goat cheese I get and the suggestions I have not seen

Having looked into it a bit deeper the pesticide problem also applies to a lot of the imported veg one finds on the supermarket shelves, many of them banned in the UK.

I rarely buy supermarket veg and almost never imported stuff. Hopefully that's enough to offset the chocolate

I've been using an application on my mobile phone a lot recently. The application is called Yuka. It's a rating program for foodstuffs.

I know Molpet uses it and maybe some others on this thread.
I've had a few shockers. A bar of 90% dark chocolate. Can't go far wrong one might have thought. Scanned it with Yuka and Yuka practically shouted "Don't Eat It." Apparently the coca plant is heaving with pesticides.
At the other extreme. a microwavable curry which one would have thought a complete no no got an excellent rating. A lot more than 5 ingredients in that.

Did you know that a lot of people get problems with their intestines from food stress?

Good to use an app like Yuka, a week or so , to get an idea. Take it with a pinch of salt. Listen to your own body. And most of all eat what you like in combination with the food you know is healthy (organic veggies) .

This advice was given to me from an utmost reliable and close relative who studied nutrition & health, became a doctor and works at the hospital for patients with internal problems (stomach, intestines, liver).

I’m always amazed how tolerant my five are of rain. It has to get quite heavy before they’ll retreat to the run.

My chickens seem to enjoy the rain. Not only do they drink it somehow (as evident in their decreased consumption of the water in their waterer) but there must be more bugs to eat then because they ignore their feed to run off into the bushes when it rains
