PracticeFarm Traded the suburbs for 10 acres in the Lockyer Valley. Absolutely no idea what we’re doing, but doing jy anyway

We are ready to start the last part of the coop build.
This is the back area designed to help protect the coop from the sun in summer but let it in to warm in in winter.

This is my Quamby rooster Colin.

This breed has such an excellent temperament and the roosters make great flock protectors.

Just another reason why Quamby’s are my favourite breed of chicken.

Beekeeping (amateur) with varroa in SEQ is no joke 🐝

This was a quick response to a very high mite count, and we’ve got jobs to do every couple of days from here on, including OA v**e. 🤞 Hoping we don’t have to reach for the harder stuff — but it’s on hand and we’ll do whatever the bees need. 😤

Disco duck has been trying to sit on eggs for days. I keep taking a few everyday because we aren’t hatching any ducklings.
The last few days Kit Kat has been sitting next to her as security and when I go to take them she jumps on top.
This is hard to do, but it would be worse to let them hatch and have more ducks than the time and resources to care for them all.
My research tells me this behaviour means they might be slowing down their egg production for the season as well.

From 4am crowing to Sunday fry-up 🐓➡️🌭

We turned our excess roosters into proper English breakfast bangers — lean rooster, pork back fat, sage and white pepper in natural hog casings.
Nothing wasted on this little patch.
Rooster Bangers: real paddock-to-plate.

Just one clip of several 🐕. The dogs are coming through more often as it dries out — and this is exactly why we built the enclosure, after losing birds in broad daylight.
