Rebuild!

The tractor has a nice new home! We have renewed the old garage with a nice new tin skin so the tractor, and a few other bits and bobs, can stay nice and dry and warmish through the winter!

Doing the splits

Well splitting logs to be precise! Andrew cleared the branches over hanging the fields so after burning the smaller bits earlier this week we spent today splitting the larger bits ready for next winter.

Also this week one of the geese started laying again for some strange reason and as andrew had seen them mating we are incubating them, bit of a punt we know as very late in the year. We also now have a fancy fully automatic incubator so good way to give it a test run if nothing else!

Pecking order!

We have moved two of the chickens into a different group and it's caused a definate pecking order we arn't letting you join our group scenario! They are getting pecked less and getting to the feeder eventually but a slow process! They are still young just hope when they get to laying age they will be able to hold there own and fit in albeit still at the bottom as they will be the largest in the group when they reach full size!
The one plus is that Layer who was at the bottom before has moved up the rankings!
