Greeting bird from this side of the planet.





hi there! how has your season been?


Not brilliant. It's been very wet and we didn't get the sort of heat we
need to bring on 'the great tomato glut'. I've had enough veg for eating
and given to friends and family, but not enough to store for later in the
winter.


oh arg!


AND, I didn't even get one single eggplant!!! Just not enough
heat. I did manage to incubate a few eggs though and now have 2 roosters to
replace the gorgeous young fellow I lost last November.


i'm glad you got your new fellas, were they from
the previous rooster via the hens or did you get
fertilized eggs from someone else?

tough luck on the eggplant, do you usually have a
large harvest of it?

new for me this season will be okra. i have seeds
and am waiting for certain warmth well past the last
frost date.


My poor chooks
nealry drowned though given how much water was flowing through their pens -
I can't recall a year with so much rain.


and now heading to the rainy winter season too? or
do things normally dry out there in the winter?
