Tidy stable!

Well after a full day of moving boxes today the floor in the second stable/pig sty room you can actually see the floor space in over a year so andrew can use it as a second work room/rowing machine space...note the word space hopefully it will stay that way!!

Good girl!

I'm not sure which one but one of our ducks laid her first egg today!! Our first duck egg, I wasn't expecting them to start laying until next year as it is getting late in the year for ducks especially as they are very young adults!

Rain!

Rain rain rain...it doesn't want to seem to stop at the moment we are surrounded by lots of mud, we have to keep moving the male chicken run to give them some dry land!!

As a result we have been spending time inside so at least some work is being done...cupboard door has been put on and shelving is going up in the pantry. I also have hung quite a few pieces of artwork so now we have some colour on the walls also!

Penned in

Lovely as the geese are we have now put a gate on the field so they can graze the fields instead of everything they could get hold of in the yard! Andrew has also put windows in the workshops so he can see what he is doing and keep warm at the same time!

At the moment it is very wet so spending a lot of time muddy although at least the ducks are enjoying it!!

Below are photos of some of the windows, Our silkie crosses, new gate and a rare day off at Cilgerran Castle!
