That's what this weekend has been! Saturday morning we went out to Frankston to pick up the new breeding sheds. The biggest pannel being 8x12' and all of them very heavy! I had to drive a 3 Tonne Truck. Twas a bit cool! This was all done in the pouring rain as well! LOL The next trick will be setting them up. I need to get someone with welding skills out and that will *definitely* be a few weeks.
Today we went to Warrigul PC's young bird show. I mostly wanted to get some "in person" opinions of my OEG bantams and someone to help with my 1st dubbing. Most of my other chooks are too old for a young bird show or too young.
A few of the fellows said the cockrel was a nice young chap to start with but I needed to match him up to a different color hen, and the hens need a different colour roo. He was dubbed and didn't seem too fussed by it. I'll post a new pic of him in a few days. The OEGb pullet got a 1st card but the most interesting bit wasn't that... but that they reckon she's honey dun NOT lemon blue! (I see days of reasearch on dun ahead...)
Then Ambrose (Aylesbury drake) turned up a sore leg... all I can think is he must have hurt it in the car somehow! :-( Poor fella isn't going to be happy to be stuck in a sick-cage for a week or so! Silkie went unplaced, not surprised.
And now... *kersplotz*
