Can't believe I've just got away with this.  OH said why don't we get a decent coop and run for Alphie the Serama boy who has just been ejected from the main run.  That way you can get him 2 or 3 girls.

Just bought a house and run on line (found a bargain) and OH said that's good - lets keep the rabbit hutch and run as well, just in case. Well, it would be rude to refuse..............heh heh heh

And quietly the bug has bitten again

My wife asked me the other day when we were going to hatch some more eggs...... this is from the woman who was adamant we were never having chickens, and then proceeded to suggest a pond so we could get some ducks!

[jinty1911]

Yehaa Ducks

Will add to my list of MUST NOTS!!!!

It's nearly Spring and I think us humans just get err umm broody at this time of year?

[Foghorn-Leghorn]

I want need ducks in my life but the O/H is not budging on this one.   

[jinty1911]

Nah, dont think mine would either but still got eggies coming that he didnt agree with at first     

[Foghorn-Leghorn]

Do you think those subliminal messaging CDs would work if I made my own, something along the lines of "ducks are great, everyone needs ducks in their garden"?  I could then play it every night whilst the other half is asleep!     

[jinty1911]

Aye. Somthing like the Whale song that would be so painful he would have to submit

I asked OH tonight what made him agree to me having a 2nd lot of chicks and he said he had just given up now, so it's worth persevering   

[themagicaltoad1]

Yep. there's nothing that wears us down more than a persevering woman

[Chookiechook]

My husband says its not perseverance it called NAGGING!!!     

[min200]

My husband says its not perseverance it called NAGGING!!!     

And i would agree with him!

Speaking as someone whose OH has filled the shed, under the stairs and the spare room with camping gear I would say at least we nag ask............rather then just buy and leave for wifey to discover   

Mine dear husband has got a flipping raindeer skin now for putting under his sleeping bag when he sleeps out in a hammock - imagine my face when finding that as I put some of his gear abandoned downstairs back into the blanket chest he keeps stuff in

I'm seriosly thinking about getting some runner duck eggs to hatch.  Apparantly they don't need loads of water (a large paddling pool will do), and they do look sooo gorgeous!

 

Ahem... need a bigger garden!

I think you're getting very near to requiring a small holding!
