Well so far we've been pretty fortunate to get a lot things done on the farm sorted before winter that have needed doing, I've got myself some new breeding stock geese to try & improve our kill weights at Xmas for next year, along with more Indian runners so now we have ideal numbers of ducks & geese with the breeds & male to female ratio I want. ( Provided mr fox & mr badger don't have a field day.) Then we've fixed up all of our sheds & painted them except 1 & I've got myself a cider press although I've yet to try it properly.

Now if I can get a few more bantams, some orpingtons & a brooder & the poultry runs sorted I'll be pretty pleased.

Well done. It's hard work but sounds like it's worth it.

Well it's worth having it back to some of its former glory as my uncle owned it for a while but due to having help off us when we weren't working & having 1 bloke helping him with livestock part-time & my uncle being 70 odd didn't make things easy & the sheds had just fallen into a bit of dis-repair. There's still a lot to do but it's looking good in time for winter - will post pics when I have time x
