Catching up on the ducks & chicks. I hadn’t heard about them until now.... I wondered what the new custom titles were about. I’ll be following with great interest. My house cane with a large chicken coop on the property. So I’ve considered getting chickens. But it won’t be until next year at least. Not sure I have the time for it.
Thanks Guys
So far it is a blast, Duck are a Ton of fun and with you having a pond times that by 100, chickens are ok just not as interactive but will provide good eggs as will the ducks. Easy to take care of. Just do it, LOL
Shave Journal updates coming soon, as is me catching up on everyones journals. My apologies, LOL
As requested they are growing like weeds
Nice looking fowl condominiums!
Chickens....can't think of a better addition to the snakes on your property...

I have been so bad about posting in the journals lately, and catching up on the Cadre Journals as well. I hope to rectify that over the next couple of hours.
Today's shave is the 2nd day of Shelf #3 of #8. Day one was Fine American Blend, and then Fine Vetiver ( not posted ). So today we decided to get on over to England and Nirvana with Pen's English Fern.
I had just given a refresh to the WB and it was in fine form. As usual, the EF soap required some hand holding to get it right, but once there, very nice. It has been awhile since I used the soap and it made even more special. A good three-pass shave left be DSBBS and with a bit of cleanup it approached grail status.
Finished off with the RF from Asylum and perfectly matched with the EF and more than a few Vasilli's.
Set-up:
On the Homefront:
Yes you guessed it. All about ducks & chickens. The evil planned hatched by Sharon is working. If only I would have never told her I would not clean the litter boxes...... Now I wish I had...... As ducks are as bad or worse than pidgeons and being the factories of poo, LOL. Sometimes I miss sitting in my Insurance Office just hanging out on the forum, LOL Now that I am "retired" I have never been so busy.
Hope you all have a nice day
