I once put a toy dinosaur in amongst my eggs but one of the boys was convinced we had hatched a baby T Rex. He was really disappointed when I explained the joke. I told him it just wouldn't be possible but it was only when I asked him if we would really want a hungry T Rex in the classroom he agreed that chicks were better.:)

ROFL!!! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

About children— I had to break it to daughter this morning that Wales isn’t a country of whales. [emoji85] She was disappointed. [emoji23]

I think ours are OK they've been with us for 4 years and no has caught anything yet - I don't think!

So I’m cautiously back... Someone should tell this to @JoesMum too.
(Linda, hope you’re fine and will be back with us soon. If not already — I’m still catching up.)

Good evening all. Hope everyone is having a good Monday.
Lola has been in and out of the garden many times today.:)
He's had a nibble on his grass and clover but it's not been sunny enough to bask today.
Hopefully he's just getting his bearings and will stay out longer when it is warmer.

Great to hear. Way to go, boy!

I usually go for this kind of chicken:

But this one, named Freja, was left alone in the box while her siblings were held by other adults, and she sounded so frightened that I put away my camera and picked her up. :rolleyes: I would still totally eat her when there’s more meat on those bones. :oops: [emoji33]

Freja (not held by me here):

P.S. Or maybe this was Thor... :confused:

I do understand what you mean... they both hold a certain appeal. :)))) I loved raising chickens for fresh eggs but I’ve never formed any emotional attachments to birds of any kind..

He will grow and then the question is How could you not eat such a beautiful bird all properly pre-pared??
The wonderful circle of life:)))) I’m never offended when it leads to the table [emoji16]
AS long as you are doing the prep and I did not have to kill it then I will eat it too. :D

Good mornooning all. With 126 pages to catch up on in just a few days, I fear it won’t happen :(

We had dreadful internet problems after Wednesday night. No mobile signal and, because we were staying off the beaten track, poor broadband too.

So, a few posts to catch up with what we got up to.

I left here about to go out badger watching. There was a hide only 10 minutes down the road from our hotel (it wasn’t that grand a hotel, but very comfortable)

Only me and JoesDad in the hide and we were treated to 80 minutes of badger action. Three adult females who arrived separately from different directions and were, at times, just over a yard/metre from us.
