Not in the least, yawn, 'scuse me. Always glad to see how the chookes are flourishing. They are birds after all. Keep the photos coming.

Just to bore you a little more, I am going over to the place where, hopefully, in the Spring, I shall be collecting 2 or 3 baby Orpington chooks! We are going over to check over the place, but having said that my vet did recommend the lady breeder, so I am sure it will be ok.

Seems that I will have to wait quite a while before I get my new chookies. The lady I saw yesterday had HUNDREDS of birds, from peacocks to ducks, stunning pigeons, chickens, dogs, horses!! WOW!! What a place!! It was huge!! We also mentioned budgies and she used to keep budgies and she knew all about their mutations and Spangles are one of her favourites. Anyway, I digress. She will put two Buff Orpingtons together in March, she said they probably won't lay until April, then obviously we have to let them grow a bit!!! So it won't be much before July that I get some new babies. Will just have to be patient I suppose.

Everything comes to those who wait. That's what I was always told. I'm still waiting for a few things??? It will be worth the wait in the end I'm sure. It sounds like lady is going to look after you.

Wow Shirls your visit sounds fantastic, peacocks what gorgeous birds they are (well yes I know they all are) but so 'showy' seeing them 'strut their stuff' Seems a long time to wait for new chooks but it'll fly by (no pun intended!) you'll see.

Delayed gratification has been linked to heaps of positive outcomes, patience of course being on of them, but also physical and mental health, academic success and social competence. You will be master of all these by the time mid-2015 comes around, Shirls.
