Turns out Langers and Fritta were boys so because bylaws are applicable we had to give them back to the breeder. Not as sad as expected since Langers had begun to attack me (from behind… gutless wonder 😁). Harmesy and Melksy are girls so we’re allowed to keep them. 🥳 

So we got three more babies, different breed but also chosen because of their quieter cockcrow. So far, so good. We’re 99% sure they’re girls. 🤞🏼

I give you…

Goldie, Edo and Gabi, my AFLW trio. 💕

aaaaanndd… Edo’s a boy. 😢

I can’t believe the very first morning after posting this I wake up to crowing. Sadly Edo will have to be delisted. Goldie and Gabi are being “managed” for 2-4 weeks. If they’re boys as well, all three will have to be traded. 😢

    My fault, then, WCW? Sorry!

    👍, 😆, ❤️ and 👏 to all posters from hereon 😊

    I thought once'd be enough but I feel I need to repeat periodically!

    Keep the fun, joy and Dee-ness going folks! And looking forward to more Dees names (wondering if yours are 'Jeff' and, with some licence, 'Sean', @Bitter but optimistic?)

    My dogs have no interest in sport - in fact they hate it!

    When I watch ( particularly AFL ) they retire to The Manor's garden.

    My yelling and cursing totally unnerves them.

    Hi Bear from Bear....

     

    Did you know that Clarry recently said on radio that he's looking to get a Cavoodle?

    We are all obviously elite dog people 🤣

    Nah, that’s just nature. We usually don’t name them until we know for sure they’re hens. It’s a little easier to say goodbye to them when they’re nameless. Went a little early on this occasion. 😢 All good though, we have depth… our breeder has a healthy reserves list. 😁

    You clearly don’t know how difficult sexing chickens is. You have to look at their cloaca as soon as they hatch ie, before they take their first poo. The cloaca has a tiny pimple if it’s a boy but this disappears after the first poo. If you miss that you have to feather-sex them when they’re a couple of months old and this isn’t always accurate.

    Tune in next week for how to manage fertilised eggs until your hen is clucky enough to nest. 😁

    Two bear cubs!

    You're probably a bit young to recall these two but our bears kinda fit the bill.  I can see them enjoying a picnic as long as there's plenty of honey snacks!

    No i didn't know that Jaded.  How uncanny is that.  Our pup's haircuts can also get pretty scruffy and out of hand at times.  A good match up for Clarry's very stylish do!

    Due to the simple fact that as soon as my wife and I share a bed, it becomes a snoring contest. I have declared her the World Champion, and I have moved to a bed where we cannot hear each other snore. It's a move which many couples have discovered, saves marriages.

    Our pooch, Leila, a 4and a half year old girl, sleeps on her beds in what I call the Western Front, I.E at the western end of the passageway where our daughter resides. I call our Leila Bete Banc, our daughter is Betty Noir.

    This is Vernon. He is a rescue dog so we inherited his name.

    My wife and I have had dogs all our married life. Out first was Lovie named after Brett Lovett.

    Vernon is 17 and is partially deaf and blind. He knows the time however. He never misses dinner time and walk time.

    He gets walked up and down Collins street every night. His favorite nights are Thursday and Friday when the office girls come out of the pubs. He loves the attention.

    A beautiful dog.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
