Four Peachicks!

Mrs Flowers brought her peachicks out for a walk today and there are four wee chicks.  FOUR! Good girl Mrs Flowers.

Working fast all I got was this blurry image but they are all walking and talking and looking lovely. All multi coloured. peachicks

Pania decided to stay on her nest the whole day yesterday, but still I think it would be wise to take at least three of her eggs and raise them myself. These cats are a swarm. I must gird my loins and steal the eggs today.

Poppy has calmed down and so has Sheila and they spent most of yesterday laying in an enormous mud puddle together (we had some more rain) and chatting about stuff.

The piglets have shown no signs of missing their mother at all. They swarm about my feet when I am in there,squealing and grunting loudly, eat EVERYTHING and beg to be let out into the garden. So (being a softy) I opened their gate and they had a lovely day out there and came in when asked  for night-time.

The calves are coming along beautifully now. Still scrawny but drinking and eating like crazy.

Life is toddling along.

I hope you have a lovely day.

  1. Welcome to the peachicks! Isn’t that nice? – Weaning the piglets is for me comparable with the kids are going to Kindergarten from now on. I wonder how it is when they meet again in the barn in the evenings. Will there be a great Hello? Or just nothing…
    Good luck with Pania’s eggs. BTW: How long is she already breading? Isn’t it a good while now? Won’t it be time for hatching soon as with Mrs. Flowers? Or did I miss something?
    Thanks God for the calves… – Love the beautiful colored sky.

  2. I did read yesterday’s post but got distracted… 4 Peachicks and a beer guzzling Poppy, how wonderful. May6be I should move into the barn post surgery! Pity I am not allowed to fly.
