[Sca-cooks] The Bad, the Good, and the Better ;-)

[Saint Phlip]

Well, we had a disaster. Souage got loose in the middle of the night
and killed all my ducks. I  don't think it was viciousness on her
part, but rather they seemed to her to be squeaky toys, and she played
them to death.

However, I have now come up with an even better way to confine her- if
she gets out of this one, I give up, I'm gonna train her to be a
blacksmith.

However, R&M agreed to let me replace them, and I ordered some more
ducks- another 4- two black runners (duck and drake), and a couple of
tufted fawn and white ducks, so not only will I have ducks running
around who look like self motivated bowling pins, but (at least) 2 of
them will have little pompoms on their heads ;-)

Not only that, they allowed me to order some geese- tufted Romans-
which happen to be a period breed ;-) And, while 2 are destined for
the freezer, I can keep two to raise as pets and breeding stock ;-)

And, there will be a couple of turkey poults as well- also to be
raised for the freezer, but they are big enough, and aggressive
enough, birds, to teach playful doggies a lesson at need ;-)

Johann, how'd you get me into this, anyway?

Next project- figure out how to acquire some Dorkings and some Jungle Fowl....

Hit it hard
Repent as necessary.

It's the smith who makes the tools, not the tools which make the smith.
