Nesting box modifications in Eglu Go Up

Thats lovely Tasha

 

My Grandad loves the girls, it reminds him of when he had chickens when he was a boy. Infact I have heard some lovely stories from Grandad about when he was young that I probably wouldn't have heard if it hadn't have been for the girls

 

Funny story Lewis, bless Jemima

[Lewis]

:lol: @ Gerald! Gerald!

She does. She goes mad if they're separated, and he has a pathetic hissy quack

Sometimes one will be at the top behind the small wall, and one will be at the bottom and they'll quack until they see each other and run flapping their wings towards each other.

I'll have to film it

 

 

Missed that post Tasha, how

[Space Chick]

Bless them both they are in love

 

Either that or Gerald has left his keys somewhere and expects Jemima to know where they are

 

Off to bed now, nighty night xx

[Lewis]

Another for the list:

 

*Tilts head* "He's putting out the biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiins!"

 

Night Debs

[Falkor]

Oooh I have just realised I have had my WIR built and fully functional a year today

[Redwing]

hurrah! here - have a bottle of virtual wine

[Scramble]

Think chickens are noisy? Try Jemima!

 

The neighbour hasn't heard the chickens in 4 years - they hear Jemima all the time - she did say she likes it though

 

She just shouts and shouts and shout ... for any reason.

"Gerald! Gerald!"

"Pigeon!"

"Someones in the kitchen!?"

"Foooooood!"

"A chicken!"

"Don't chase me!"

.... and just because she can

 

They only time she's quiet is when they're in the tub trug or pond, or eating grapes so have to do one of them to shut her up

 

:lol:

 

Night everyone

xxx

[Falkor]

hurrah! here - have a bottle of virtual wine

 

 

oooh great! Thanks Tasha! Jus and I have finished the real wine and I fancied another glass! **Slurp**

 

Will I have a virtual hangover tomorrow?

[Redwing]

We had cider this evening, I'm a proper west country girl me!

 

Off to bed now, night all

[Lewis]

Night JJ + Tasha

Lewis has pear cider if that counts?

 

If you have a virtual cooked breakfast ... no virtual hangover

[Cooks]

heeelloo all nighttime owls

[Lewis]

*who wooooooo*

[Cooks]

[Lewis]

Lewis is giving up on the Biology and may consider sleep

 

My lights that I've hired should be coming tomorrow so I can set them up and programme them ready for Friday

8 led par cans (can get something stupid like 6million colours out of it) and a RYG laser

[Cooks]

wow Lewis thats a lot of technical info for me to absorb this late in the evening..

[Lewis]

 

Off to bed

 

Night

Morning

Morning

 

Happy 1st WIRthday for yesterday Em

[Valkyrie]

Morning all. Happy Runiversary for yesterday Em.

Hello Laura, goodbye Laura - till you post again.

Lewis - you are such a hoot! I think the ducks running towards each other should be filmed in slo mo - perhaps with Chariots of Fire as background music.

So I leave you all for 5 minutes and you are hatching plans to nick Deb's girls. Debs - fancy a buffyblue orpie or two. I know where you can have a gold laced chick.

 

Just found out last night that the dog escaped out the front and tried to attack Erin while she was in her car? It was snarling and running all around her and she nearly reversed it into Murray's car while she was trying not to run the dog over - she'd gone to pick up mum on Friday. Mum said "we don't get out until the coast is clear" - our neighbours eventually heard the commotion and came to retrieve it - didn't even apologise. Now it's owners like that who need the tagging and expensive insurance - not the decent dog owners.

 

I didn't get to do any veg sowing either. I am told that Murray's cousin and husband will be staying overnight on Wednesday because they are coming to Erin's Head Chef evening. How nice - that means blitz the house while the sun shines, ironing and chicken clean ups. Darned nuisance only 24 hours in a day.

Morning all My dad has a habit of asking people over for dinner etc and then Mum has to run around like a blue bottomed fly The dog sounds a real pain Koojie, surely your neighbours should do more to control it. Erin doesn't want to have anymore car bumps.

[Valkyrie]

I have my neighbours well in my sights now!

 

And for those fans of Astonish - I bought in bulk direct and got an e-mail from them this morning - I haven't run out of my granite bits yet!

I gather they are a petrochemical company. I think the oven cleaner (which I also like) has bicarb in it - although I can't be sure. It does the job anyway.

 

Oh your poor mum, Claire - I sympathise big time. And he has announced that he is going to stay with them this weekend did I want to come too. How nice. So as I don't want to rain on his parade I'm hoping that everyone will go away and I'll have my house to myself. Oops forgot Mum - oh well I'll drop her off on Saturday morning. Her Friday visits became Friday stopovers and now has become Saturday night stopovers too. No wonder Murray wants to get away. I need to rearrange mum's visits and I expect I'll get "you don't want me" and "I won't come I'll only get in the way" and other such comments.

Afternoon all! I've tried catching up on everything, got to page 19, then thought I'd skip to the end, have I missed anything? I'm desperate for a cup of tea.

[Falkor]

Afternoon all!

 

Well I have had a productive day - got lots of work done so rewarding myself with a coffee and buscuit.

 

Plan to be even more productive when i get home and do some ironing!!!!

 

Also contemplating whether to book in my first hen party

[Valkyrie]

have I missed anything

 

We all had a party at Clootie's house yesterday.

 

Me too, Em. Ironing finished, 3 (well 2 and a bit) bathrooms done from top to toe and now onto the stairs for hoovering because upstairs is now done.

[PurpleTree]

Had my first 3 egg day in aaagess yesterday, the girls must've known it was Mothering Sunday! It was more than I got from the boys
