ok we are going to give the fox a nasty surprise next time s/he visits [grin]

[ska]

very excited, just back from bro in laws and he has persuaded my dh to get electric fencing for the end of the garden where we keep the chooks. This means we can be fox free (I do hope it works) AND we can have 2 geese (he will hatch some of his eggs for us) AND 2 or even 3 ducks!!!!! hurray! at last, I really really cannot wait, i so miss our old ducks and want to immediately get some call duck eggs from ebay and get out the incubator. hurray, hurray hurray!! (btw, i also had to agree to a new keyboard for dh, we are lucky we have a tiny bit of money left from moving)

How exciting! We have Indian Runner and Campbell's ducks - they are fantastic, really sweet and funny and brilliant layers too. I'm very jealous about the geese

Oh I love Indian Runner AND campbell's ducks!

When I inherit my country estate I am going to have millions of ducks, chickens, pigs, goats, sheep etc etc etc ! And staff to look after them!

my bro in law has everything - trying to persuade him yesterday to add alpacas to his animals. he is so lucky to have huge garden.
we are waiting for dd's birthday to get the eggs altho the geese will start tomorrow i think (they will hatch these) so she can have the fun of looking after them. am riduclously excited
