Josh bought me a cute set of blue galoshes, complete with ponies. They not only have very thick soles, they have marvelous ankle support. And did I mention the ponies?

I've completely rewired the entire Duckgard/Bunhalla/Cheekinheim. *slump* And yes, I screwed up - white lights on one side, yellow in the middle and far side. Guess what I'm going to fix tomorrow? These lights are on a timer, thankfully, so they'll just pop on and off at the appointed times. Whether this light strung along the fencing between Duckgard & Bunhalla is enough to keep the ducks laying all winter, remains to be seen. I went ahead and ran a line should we need a light in the duck nesting shed (which they barely use).

I've also installed a nightlight with sensor in the top of Cheekinhenge so the cheekins have a cheery light, which should help with laying now that I've two redneck-fabulous temporary nesting boxes made up of plastic littler containers - why we have Tidy Cat litter containers, I refuse to wonder about. During the colder snaps, which I'll be able to track via our digital remote temperature station, I can swap out the sensor night light for a heat lamp. Oh yes, I can. I now wield ultimate power, Buhawahahahaha! *cough* excuse me.

Speaking of the cheekins, here's a Brown Betty profile shot:



In other news, I have now ordered magazine subscriptions & holiday gift wrap from nearly every kid who comes to play with the rabbits and ducks.

Well, she might be a Leghorn, but that ain't my call. Maybe. I think she is a mutt, and possibly an EE.

I thought it was Cheekinheim? You know, to go with the whole Norse theme you had going?

Anyway...?!?

No bother!

[And now, I'm having flashes of a non-existent Eddie Izzard routine, of "'ow d'you expect me to live in a 'enge?"]

Hehe, yay!

I doubt I would find galoshes with ponies anywhere here that would be big enough to fit me(Hence why I must... live vicariously through yours..? lol)

You are going to run out enclosure names eventually... what are you going to do if you get goats? Or, god forbid, a cow.

Nope, no goat (not enough room) and not zoned for cattle (need 1 acre per 300 pounds of livestock here).

I second the request for a picture of the galoshes.

When we went up to WicCan Fest this year, and drove through a downpour the entire second day of driving there, I insisted that we find a place where I could buy inexpensive rubber boots. We found some at Canadian Tire. Mine are robin's egg blue. I want to see if acrylic paint will stick to them because I want to paint a little street scene on them with poofy clouds and a sun overhead.

And I want more pictures of your critters. :-)
