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. 😢

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?

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!

Where do you sleep

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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
