Steve and I were in the coffee shed earlier and we saw Flash jump inside the green metal bin which contains a bag of mixed grit. We then realised she was going to lay her egg in there! It’s a nice private spot, but surely not very comfortable 😂
Egg pic is in the comments!
Iris and Joules are having a disagreement over some sweetcorn in the bucket ( there are two other buckets available with exactly the same contents 🤪)
Ivor is trying to intervene.
Turkeys can fall out for the simplest of reasons and then they can hold a grudge for days, weeks or even months 😱
Generally they all get along well, but they are strong, powerful birds and can cause serious injuries, so i think I’d better separate these two before it escalates any further!
We are flooded again like many others across the UK 🙁
There are so many weather warnings still in place, i hope you and your animals can stay safe, it’s very worrying 💦
The Raptors are enjoying some sunflower hearts as a Friday lunchtime treat.
I promised them some if they didn’t escape this week, and they didn’t, what good Raptors! 😁👍❤️
Steve’s squirrel friends demanding their breakfast 😂
Ant and Duck are beginning to relax and they’re getting to know me and our routine.
I think they’re enjoying the peace and quiet at Lowveld, and the room service too! They’re both eating well now, and they’re enjoying trying new things, which are much healthier than bread, which i think they keep asking me for.
Duck is desperate to explore outside of their shed, but Ant is reluctant to come outside. His eyesight is poor even in his good eye, so he just needs to take things at his own pace.
Duck won’t go off without him, how sweet is that 🥰, so I’ve put him an extra bucket of water on the porch, and Ant has his own bucket inside ( good job there is a rubber mat lining the shed floor!)
The bond these two have is so special and beautiful to see ❤️
This hen is not named Flash for nothing!
She appears as quick as a flash when she spots something interesting, in this case, someone else’s breakfast 😂
