How I wish we could do that here, the kikuya would think I was feeding it!<br>It won't be long until you have huge sunflowers... and all sorts of wonderful birds visiting.<br>Emilylittlefarminthecityhttp://littlefarminthecity.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-2322654394893565242008-11-07T10:02:29.944+10:002008-11-07T10:02:29.944+10:00Hi I've just been looking over your blog, insp...Hi I've just been looking over your blog, inspiring! I like a bit of power tool action too, however the little chook house I built was just that, little. Love the girls too, are they pekins? we have the orange version.Jeddahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00616797869811071619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-72545576579298042452008-11-07T12:50:40.998+10:002008-11-07T12:50:40.998+10:00Lurv no-dig gardens:DLurv no-dig gardens:DLucky-1http://www.blogger.com/profile/17904586950202567882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-70629662168740848352008-11-07T21:17:03.151+10:002008-11-07T21:17:03.151+10:00Thanks for the comments guys, especially to a new ...Thanks for the comments guys, especially to a new face, jedda. You are right - they are pekins. I have 4 black hens and 1 blue splash rooster.<br><br>He was an older male about ready for retirement. It was only after I purchased him, that I discovered he wasn't able to mount the hens properly. Apparently he had been used for a lot of (AI) or artificial inseminaton.<br><br>I'm hoping he'll find the call of the wild again. I'd love to have some new chicks around.<br><br>I'm learning to love no-dig gardens too lucky-1. So quick and easy to put up. I've noticed my sunflower seedlings are responding by growing slightly bigger!<br><br>Oh the dreded kikuya grass, Emily. That's one thing I don't miss. We had it too when we lived in Toowoomba. It got into absolutely everything!! I wonder if it does well in the weed teas? I've actually seen people use the dead weeds (after sitting in water for 6-8 weeks) as a mulch for the garden afterwards.<br><br>I must say I'm learning a new appreciation for weeds every day. They can be used in all sorts of ways.Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-35263985646747011392008-11-08T15:59:04.481+10:002008-11-08T15:59:04.481+10:00nice work Chris, cant wait to see your sunny sunfl...nice work Chris, cant wait to see your sunny sunflowers :o)<br><br>i have given you an award over on my blogNicolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07463146316953697505noreply@blogger.com
