This is Sasha, one of my best guardians who used to protect the toughest paddock I had at kenthurst as foxes were constantly trying to get to the chickens I had in her paddock! She was rehomed once I moved as I didn’t need 8 guardians anymore! She absolutely loves her new home at Happy Farm which is just down the road from my new place in the Hawkesbury! Isn’t she so beautiful with her fluffy white winter coat!

From eggs to eggplant!! Going back to my Italian heritage roots!

Home made Marinated eggplant AKA "Melanzane" - the traditional Italian delicacy which my nonna used to make!

Marinated eggplant with special herbs, cured in extra virgin olive oil. The eggplants are grown by a local Wilberforce farmer!

This is delicious with toast or a crusty bread roll with shaved Parmesan cheese or can be used as a side dish with meats or on a antipasto platter or even on pizzas!

Available in 1.1kg and 520gm jars.

PM me for further details! Pick up is on the Hawkesbury district or delivery can possibly be arranged!

Had some family portraits done at home last weekend! To say I’m happy with the photos is an understatement!!! The dogs were so well behaved! I should have included some chickens - next time I’ll grab a few of the Chinese silkies for a photo! Now to decide which ones I get blown up and display around the house!!

As some of you would know I’ve stopped breeding poultry quite a while ago and stopped now breeding maremmas too! I had 8 maremmas to protect all the chickens, ducks and geese I had while breeding but once I stopped breeding I really had no need to have so many so I found beautiful farms for most of them to go to! Here’s where Sasha went! She was definitely one of the best guarding maremmas I had and she used to live with the chickens right down the very back at my former Kenthurst farm - this was the paddock where foxes would come up regularly before she starting guarding that paddock! Once she was there she did her job amazing and I never even had to lock up the poultry at night! She’s now at Happy Farm at North Richmond doing amazing job as you can see in the photos below!

I did keep Stella as a pet and was given a baby boy Bubba who is now 9 months old and he is being desexed today! My 2 don’t really have anything to guard but the house and they do a great job of letting me know if a stranger comes to the front gate! They get taken for walks regularly in Windsor and North Richmond and lots of kids and adults always come up to them and pat them and talk to me about maremmas!

I do still have a friend who breeds maremmas and she has Thor Junior who I bred! She is a registered dog breeder on a 1200 acre farm! She regularly has puppies coming through which I do post on my page and I look after the Sydney rehoming of them making sure they go to suitable homes and following up with any help any new maremma owners might need!

Maremmas truly are a beautiful livestock guardian who take their job seriously!

Had a lovely early morning with Stella and Bubba and my husband followed by a beautiful breakfast back at home! Loving the Hawkesbury district and great footpaths to walk the maremmas by the river! They are so well socialised that kids and other dogs can come up to them! They love the pats from all the little kids and loving playing in the public dog park with other dogs!

25/01/2023

Having a good livestock guardian is all about the blood lines and upbringing! Look at this little beauty! He is the grandson of one my former boys! I’m taking enquiries on him now!

Bubba and Stella had a big adventure the other day! We took them to Windsor which is the first time they’ve been out in public to meet people and see what it’s like to be a normal dog instead of a paddock livestock guardian! They absolutely loved it! Stella stood in my open cage animal trailer with the wind in her face while Bubba sat down watching her as we transported them to Windsor! People stopped, asked us about them and told us how beautiful they were!

Here’s some photos of them on their adventure! They even met another dog in the enclosed dog park area!

Here’s also a puppy who is in training with ducks, chickens and turkeys and ready to go to his forever home! He is the grandson of one of my previous males! Send me a message if you want any information on him!

I forgot to post this yesterday!! Isn’t she gorgeous! It’s Bluey with Santa! Bluey was a puppy I bred almost 2 years ago from Roxie! The owner of her now got Santa photos with Bluey and her family and she was so well behaved! Did anyone else get Santa photos with their animals? Post pictures in the comments if you did! Hope all my followers had a Merry Christmas!

O my goosh take a look at these gorgeous purebred ragdoll kittens I got to meet today! Aren’t they just the cutest little babies you’ve ever seen!

How fast they grow! These are Thor Juniors latest puppies! Some of these puppies are coming up Sydney to farms around me to protect livestock! This is how you bring maremma puppies up, amongst the stock from when they can walk, and also making sure they are well socialised with humans! I have 2 maremmas from Narelle who breeds from Thor Junior (he was my first male that I bred)!

What do you do with your lettuce when it goes to seed? Of course my chickens get it here!! Look at the beautiful tomatoes I also grew in my vegetable garden! They taste so delicious!! Also featured here is Bubba who is my baby boy (Stella’s younger boyfriend)! He loves his walks to our creek of a morning!

What a great weekend (but exhausting as we all didn’t stop)! We showed our Japanese students a lot of ‘Aussie culture’ and showed them places they wanted to visit like an Aussie bookshop, Aussie supermarket and our local shopping centre at Rouse Hill! They got to spend lots of time with our different animals, ate a variety of Aussie foods and helped us get jobs done that needed to be done! It was a very satisfying weekend! They were so polite and appreciative of what we did for them! One day I’d love to be able to visit Japan and see their culture!

Today I welcomed Bella to come and stay for 2 weeks while her human parents are going on holidays! She is a female maremma who was very scared when she first got here but now she seems to be settling in well after a walk and dinner! She has never been without her human parents and lives on a house block as a pet so coming here to over 10 acres is a very different experience where she gets to see alpacas, a horse and chickens!

Also in these photos is 2 of my maremmas Bubba and Stella! Bubba has grown so much in the last few months but still very much a puppy! He loves running in the creek on our property when I take him for afternoon walks!

How my morning starts! I call her from about 80 metres away and she runs to me for her milky!

Okay here’s a post for the ladies on my page!! My beautiful daughter Charlize had just started her own business doing eyelash extensions! She was previously doing this from home here but has now moved into a hairdressing salon at Dural!

Charlize does an awesome job and I’ve had them done a few times and each time they’ve lasted 3-4 weeks and I’ve had no need to wear makeup!

Please give her a go if this is something you do! You won’t regret trying her! If you mention ‘Michelle’s happy hens’ Charlize will give you a $15 discount off your first set!

She is available Monday to Saturday including Thursday night!

Contact her through her Instagram page or text on 0437 785 766

I love it when I do things and it’s really appreciated!

A few days ago I was contacted by a lovely lady who was moving and she just couldn’t keep her 2 chickens so I said I’d happily take them to live out their lives at my property with my chickens instead of going to the pound!

Here’s the beautiful message she sent me after dropping them off this morning!

They are the 2 gorgeous rhode island reds in the photos! They have a beautiful garden to live in where they’ll continue ‘weeding it’ for me!

Last week I had the pleasure of checking my parents cows as they were away for a few days! This white gorgeous baby girl was born on the day mum and dad got home! You’ll also see in the photos another beautiful baby black girl who was born about 2 weeks ago! Aren’t they just so precious! The white calf is named Shelly Bell after me!!
