Of course you can come up anytime you like for a fix - though the hayfever is a worry (a sign perhaps?). We have so much room (almost too much as I lamented!) so we can always do the community thing i.e. I’ll grow the huge sprawling stuff, you can do the amazing greens you do and we’ll swap pumpkins for greens etc. What do you think!<br /><br />2.Simply.Belinda Says: <br /> <br />November 30th, 2008 at 3:36 am e<br /> <br />Hi Crone,<br /><br />That really is a healthy adjustment to make. <br /><br />Adapting in place is the way many are going to have to go. In today’s financial climate debt is a really big enemy… and I haven’t seen an acreage that comes without it when upgrading from a suburban home. As long as its reasonably well sited you can really achieve a lot on the average block and if in the future the right acreage comes along and the money to do it easily you will have learned so many lessons that will stand you in good stead.<br /><br />Kind Regards<br />Belin<br />3.river Says: <br /> <br />November 30th, 2008 at 5:42 am e<br /> <br />Adapting to the area you already have is the way to go. Think of it as practice for when you get the acreage….<br /><br />4.molly Says: <br /> <br />November 30th, 2008 at 8:32 am e<br /> <br />Lordy L, I hope hubby never reads your blog, cos if he does, he will lock the door when he sees me coming LMAO!<br /><br />I have no clue how to tell a rooster from a hen at that young age. How about if you find any roosters you can return & swap for hen/s?<br /><br />If you want to give the chicks to the wee ones for Christmas we can organise that, just let me know when you are ready for them.<br /><br />So glad we had the chance to catch up again, it was lovely!<br /><br />Blessings:)<br />5.admin Says: <br /> <br />December 1st, 2008 at 12:43 am e<br /> <br />hehehe Molly! I was going to ask if you are ok with us waiting until any rooster traits have been identified? That will give me enough time to remove rubbish from the intended chicken run area.<br /><br />I can’t wait another two months to gtg with you mad things LOL <br /><br />6.molly Says: <br /> <br />December 1st, 2008 at 3:03 am e<br /> <br />Anytime is fine with me L. I have to ask, what does gtg mean, it has had me flumoxed for weeks LOL<br /><br />Blessings:)<br /><br />7.admin Says: <br /> <br />December 1st, 2008 at 4:28 am e<br /> <br />Get together <br />8.nathalie Says: <br /> <br />December 1st, 2008 at 8:45 am e<br /> <br />RE: the roosters. You can tell them apart when they are 1 day old. Don’t ask me how exactly, but I remember a family friend who used to pick them up, gently press their tummies up and blow on the down feathers near the cloaca to check. (Or something like that - keep in mind I’m remembering this from a 9 year olds perspective!) Not sure exactly what denoted male from female but obviously something was different. Plymouth rocks you can only tell after about 3 weeks (apparently the males are slower to feather up than the female ones.) So different breeds different times/signs etc. Molly - you’ll have to look up your chook breed and find out!<br />P.S. Have you guys stepped outside and looked at the sky? WOW!<br /><br />9.cathode Says: <br /> <br />December 1st, 2008 at 9:21 am e<br /> <br />Im here, Im here : )<br /><br />10.molly Says: <br /> <br />December 2nd, 2008 at 2:54 am e<br /> <br />I refuse to be fiddlin with any chooks you know whats LMAO!!!!
