I have an egg mystery. I got three eggs today. Brandy has laid every day for a year till this week. I think she's getting ready to molt. Hilde just started 3days ago, all the others are 6 weeks younger. None of the three were Brandys. Saxonys are late to mature or WH are early.

The coyotes here just like hens. I am still mourning Bad Bad Leroy Brown

It seems that all predators like hens better than drakes.

 

[WannaBeHillBilly]

Yep, I'm getting used to it sucks. I sit out with them with the 45. I went in to pee, maybe 3minitues and Leroy was eaten

You need to hook up your electric fence to a neon transformer: The coyote gets stuck at the fence and can't get away and when you come back from /dev/null - triple "S".

Yes but my dog, my cat and I all get heart attacks.

Also the coyote jumps over the fence. I need a taller fence.this

Then get a taller fence and set up a single wire on top of that and connect it to a neon-transformer like this. It will burn them nuts off when they jump the fence…

Doin fine! - Just very busy with my thirteen Fall Ducklings and with adding a run or a pen to the duck-house, using two left hands…

Good afternoon HillBilly, hope you're having a great day... Good to see you

Good afternoon Lisa, try to have a great day, so sorry about Leroy

Good to have you back.

Good afternoon Donkeydew, have a great day

That's a precision fence attack! So funny!

Good mornternoon / aftermorning Everybody!
It's a very wet and windy spring day here. We have warm winds from the north for now, but as the front moves east we are going to get very chilly as the Antarctic winds loop round to us via southern Australia. The ducks will get a brief visit to throw food in their general direction, and that will be all. I might sow some flower seeds under cover - heavy ones which won't blow out of my hand!

Coming from southern Australia is a lie! They are feeling it up north too... going off the SILs fb post yesterday, Methven sounds like it was ready to be blown off the mountain (yes I view the entire of NZ as one large mountain ridge) . Be hot here again by weekend in the 30s.
