Waiting game

Sent 20 Sebright Bantam's eggs to the hatchery to be incubated today. Will be happy with a 30% hatch rate. In fact will be happy with any rate above zero hahaha!

Now the waiting game begins....

Bird Breeding Project

During a meeting with the land owner, I suggested that we abandon our initial plan. "Let's ececute Plan B", I said.
Obviously the reply must be "what is Plan B?".

Honestly I was not sure myself hahaha!
But then cooking up something in the split of a second is nothing new to me. Not in a cunning or sneaky way, but there are just too many plans in my head at any one time. So, sorting out some to meet the occassion appears feasible.

Anyway, plan accepted and now I have to plan for myself.... a bird farm!
A Barau Sanctuary and a Shama breeding facility to be precise is at the core. ;)

The workers' quarters....


the landing strip for my Homing Pigeons? or a "chai" arena for the Jambuls? I have yet to decide....
