Doubling the duckling run

Ducklings July 20 (3)

Our ducklings have doubled in size since we bought them 2 weeks ago. As a result, we have had to double the size of the duckling run. The ducklings won't be there for too much longer. We will be building a new chick run on our livestock plot and the ducklings will go into that, along with the chicks that are currently in the back garden. The arrival soon of 30 chicks has focused our attention on chick and duckling accommodation. And the incubators are still hatching eggs and will do up to the autumn.

Good Morning Jonathan,

Ran into your site from a link on Before it’s News.

You appear to be inspired by the old English show “The Good Life” where a couple start a farm in the middle of suburbia.

I’ve been doing the same libel on a little larger scale.

Your showing people how not to be so dependent and talk care of their immediate surroundings,

Keep up the good work and it’s exciting to see another “Jonathan” half way across the globe doing the we do!

God Bless,

Jonathan

Hello Jonathan

Great to hear from you. The Good Life is one of my favourite programmes and I remember watching it in the 1970s when I was at school. Good luck with your venture.
