r could be for rouen ducks, or rhode island reds or rhode island whites...both varieties of chickens.....rouen ducks are lovely.....has anyone ever kept or seen any?

im a little hessitant to mention one of my favourites....but way back ages ago....i saw to my horror...dr harry....holding one of my favourite breed of geese in a picture in the herald sun. my dissapointment led to my abscence from chickenmania....but als, ive bought a horse and i must put my backside where the dust lies and get on with it. sebastapol geese are a very rare breed of russian goose that has a mass of ringlet style curly feathers, in excellent specimens the plumage is outrageous. they are white with yellow bills and legs and are quite quiet as geese go. i had some and bred many years ago....sent offspring in all directions, but alas..the foxes did in my breeders and im not in the position to chase around and buy more....so i suppose at least old harrys hanging onto a bloodline or two so he cant be that bad....alll self promoting bastards usually have one or two endearing qualities!

Fucked if I know how relevant this is to anything, but it looked like the kind of thing some folks might like to take a gander at. http://www.boingboing.net/2008/10/12/plymouth-rock-monthl.html

thanks gohst for the link....just happened to be looking when we were hooking up the printer....printed the front cover....those were the days...40,000 subscribers to a chicken mag....ironic these days people are after a different kind of breast and cock! anyway it was the first thing i ever printed on my new printer. new shit happened and theres new programs re photos and scanning but ill get to that. the best thing about being paid a properly hourly rate to milk cows is im finished work at 9.30 am. that leaves the rest of the day for me....and the critters. today is bonfire and red wine day....in that order for safety reasons. i still havent finished s.......i like totally must mention saxony ducks dudes.....but not today....the down side of only working 5 hours a day is i start at 4.30 and im needing a nanna nap.

yay 14 piglets born yesterday......theyre pretty cute....but destined for tummies regardless. i quit my job herd managing as all dairy farm owners are assholes.....remember that......a good year is called capital gains and a bad year is societies problem...but if my pay is 6 days late leaving me cashless over christmas while they holiday interstate who gives a fuck......my care level dropped to theirs and i quit....lifes too short. my cousin died in a motorcycle accident on monday....just like that....so merember....live for today...take no crap from assholes.....and ring your mum!
