Good morning guys - 9.13 a.m here in NZ.

We came home yesterday after a 9 hour trip to Auckland (big smoke), for a bowls tournament and guess what - 4 new chicks! So out of the one dozen "fertile" eggs I bought from a breeder, 6 were fertile. The rest were clears. One died at 14 days incubation, probably due to the long power cut we had, but the rest are looking great.

Thanks so much for the support. Ready for my next batch now.

Grownut, I haven't followed the thread but sounds like someone thinks the country is boring? Not here it isn't, but we are a very small country. US is so big guess you'd have to travel a long way to get anywhere different? We are surrounded by dairy farms and "lifestylers" (including us) i.e. on small blocks of land 6 - 10 acres upwards. We have a great life, wonderful neighbours, Belted Galloway cattle which I'm breeding as they are classed as a rare breed and now I'm into chooks!

We are hoping to travel to the States in the future - what a wonderful country of contrasts! Have a son in Miami
who I haven't seen for three years.

Here's my babies....
