It was mate, have to fight with my little lad now for the crackling!
-
And had roast pork with crackling for tea....can't beat it
-
The hatching egg sales average price has crept up and is now around £15 'profit' getting for 6 eggs. More than covering the cost of feed.

It was the shark trip we were wanting to get on after the skate but he packed in to go commercial bass fishing from memory. Top lad

Yes mate, Kevs boat. Best skipper I ever went out with. Finally found a good one.....then he jacked to go commercial! Messaged him a couple month ago actually and he is back doing holidays but elsewhere in the world now, Norway and New Zealand etc.

Just been watching a Dean Macey thing on You tube the Scotland tour. Pretty good actually. They went after common skate near Oban, similar place to where we went couple year back. Unreal, for the normal fisherman I would recommend getting up there for a trip. This for me is the UK equivalent of a massive Ebro cat, Canadian Sturgeon or Thailand Aripayma but affordable. Obviously take a risk with weather but it is so sheltered up there in them bays that you should get our. We went for a few night, couple days fishing, all caught massive fish. My two biggest were 217 and 204.....

I had some money on em to get promotion at beginning of season. Then when we were really low Sky Bet went out to 200-1 which I had another tenner on. At the minute my bets pay out 650 for top half finish Roughly 4k for promotion! Come on you reds!!!!

Need to get Molly contract extended and sign Haks up on a free. TLT and Craig on loan for full season would be cherry on cake. If all 4 leave I feel we will be back to square one.

Big game tomorrow for us, mind you, we need to win every game so they are all as big as the last!
-
Any fans in here? Personally a Donny Rovers fan, still an outside chance of making playoffs. In great form. Won last 6 on bounce conceding 1 goal on the run. Some very interesting fixtures in the next couple weeks which throw the chase wide open. If we win our remaining games I believe we will make it. Bear in mind at some point after Xmas we were 3rd bottom!

For those that were interested in the hatching egg sales I have now sold 7 sets of 6 eggs with an average sale price of £21. It costs around £7.50 for postage and packaging. So basically average of £13.50 for 6 eggs. As eating eggs local they would be selling for £1.50

Been quiet lads because not much going on other than eating the produce! Feel like you seen most of it now no point keep posting same shite! Moved the chicks into their new shed at weekend get em out of my shed so I can get to my fishing gear! Other than that just sausage, pork chops and eggs ongoing

You can't feed them kitchen scraps regardless of who is consuming it pal.
-
Totally agree mate. A couple of hens at the allotments is not the problem regards bird flu!!! They just want to make it as hard as possible for the normal bloke. Similar to not being able to feed pigs kitchen scraps. That was the norm for years, the "cottagers pig" and there were no issues. Because some bell end down south was importing wagon loads of food waste from France and caused foot and mouth they carte blanch apply a new law. Then people with little knowledge jump on the band wagon when you feed them carved pumpkins "if they have been in a kitchen and carved with a knife they are

Heads up boys, anyone considering a few hens they are changing the rules. Used to be over 50 but from October now any/all birds kept are to be registered with DEFRA! They will do anything to make it harder for people to provide for themselves.
-
At the minute I think you can keep up to 49 birds without registering. My plan is to keep a dozen layers and a couple Cockerells and some growers for the freezer, I'm having to manage it to stay below the 50 No for reg. Bear in mind this is all live birds so I am up to 34 at the minute and nearly half of them are chicks which are the next generation but no use for eggs or meat at the minute. Would def go over 50 to do what I wanna do and this on a really small scale so they already have it controlled IF people register or even know. The system is set up to stop people producing their own

Moved 7 chicks from brooder to main coop today. 6 weeks old. This will free up the big brooder to move the chicks into from the little brooder. The production line is going now.

Depending what you want you can get breed more specific to laying, can get yr old Warren's for 5quid a hen round me, Ince you have nursed em.to health they will lay well for a few yrs still. I went for light sussex as they are dual purpose, for meat and eggs as I want both. I get 5-6 eggs a week per hen so just under 1 a day. Good solid bird, handles the cold and lays all year (some stop in winter). Nice looking bird aswell which isn't important but helps with the misus. As some have said chickens will clear the ground they are on so either put them on slabs/concrete and feed em well or o

Finished the bee keeping course last night. Very interesting subject. I won't be pursuing it right now but think I will in the future. I thought it was stick some bees in a box and later in the year get some honey. It's a lot more intensive than that and I have enough plates spinning at the minute. Glad I did the course instead of reading up a bit and getting some hives!
