martyblues Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 p******** down must be the weekend Good morning to all Quote
Norman Verona Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 Graham, that's great. Have you seen the picture of HM rearing ducklings in our bath? Hang on and I'll get it. Duckling in bath: Feeding time: Quote
Paul Gibney - Lancashire AO Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Bolton 5 deg if we are lucky overcast and dull. Must be spring !!!! M.O.T later wish me luck ! Quote
Graham0127 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Thanks Norman....been avoiding ducks for a couple of years now,even filled in a pond...BUT big softy I am and pressure from kids when they see this.......and I`ll get some hatching eggs. Quote
Norman Verona Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 Our ducks are all gone now. We had a fox attack one night, 3 dead out of 20 odd. Then over the next few days they all went.They probably walked away as they had quite a few ducklings with them. I'd like to get some more but HM says it's nice not having duck poo everywhere. Quote
Graham0127 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 We found duck poo the problem.Chicken poo is ok...bit of rain and it`s gone.We`ve got Guinea fowl as well and their poo is dry and disappears real quick.We keep our birds loose in the orchard so a bit of natural fertiliser does no harm anyway. Quick update.....more chicks just hatching... And we now have a black one..(is that pc?) Quote
7sRWild Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Morning all, sunny day, minus seven, the car is coming out today, going to drive up to Calgary for our Alberta sevens meeting, hopefully the parking lot at the meeting place will be clear of snow. Quote
Norman Verona Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Good morning all. It's not raining and is better than dull but not sunny. Supposed to rain today and tomorrow and snow on Tuesday. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Light snow in the air now, but not looking like it'll stick at the moment. Shame Quote
ajpearson Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Good morning all, the sun is now trying to come out in Cornwall even if it is still -1 OAT Quote
Norman Verona Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Good morning all, it's wet here. Tomorrow is supposed to snow and 0c for the next 4 days. Seems like a very long winter this year. Quote
