Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I need some tea

Hot water is on over at the Tent.

Ok, I brought Joan's eggs in to check on them. One had a hairline crack in the small end with some dried blood, so may have quit. Didn't see movement but veins still looked good. Rubbed some antibiotic ointment into the crack just in case. One I can't tell, no draw down yet but too dark to see well. Two had internal pips and one was peeping its head off.

Should I close off the brooder box to keep the other hens out? Only one Orloff likes to still lay in there, I've been removing her eggs daily. Guess I should dust off my chick feeders and waterers just in case.

Still having a field mice problem. Have traps set up in a shoebox. Weird having a broody and not being able to see what's going on. Hope Joan is not a baby killer like Betty was!

Hope the hatch goes well.

I asked her. She screamed like a pterodactyl and hunkered down on her babies.

Silly Jace.

I don't even know what a crumpet is.... But I have a strawberry poptart.

Looks like we are still up for the time being, I thought the pond froze over already.

I have a wrong-end pipper!

I hardly ever get those. It looks really cramped.

Uh oh. Sorry about the wrong-end pipper!


Good morning pondies! Very relieved to see we're still here. I'm finally back to working at the office. It's a relief to get my routine back!

I'm sure this site will go on pause just about the time I am home. Getting some heavy work done for my Mom, got the Firebird running, prepped and ready to ship after taking her to a local meet up Saturday.


One more day of hard work, then home...

Kersplash, oh yeah ! This is much better. That other place has no pond heater, and it's difficult finding a decent lily pad. The elephant herd wreaked havoc. I think we are good until tomorrow morning. Chris, BYC is behaving for me --------------- so far. GOOD MORNING POND SCUM !

It seemed to have a bit of a tizzy for around half an hour, then back to normal

Hot water is on over at the Tent.

So I saw, but the cafe seems a little too civilised for the likes of me. I'm sure I'd end up being told to drink my tea out of a plastic cup (and bring my own teabags)

Productive! Hope your mom is doing well. Are you taking the Firebird home?

You can pretend to be civilized too...

I can, but it's never long before the real me pops out

Just pop those pinkies up while you're drinking. They'll never know the difference.

Good thinking, Batman

Chris, you can always bring your own white linen tablecloth and fine china to put on the picnic tables.

What about my cucumber sandwiches?
