I've been gathering speed today in getting to grips with things again - quite slow, because I didn't want to work hard Tidying, putting things away, and working in the garden - that felt good! 2023: the year I get to buy a car6

I thought Pheasants bred in Spring (March to June). Perhaps last year's male-pheasants are still in with their sisters and mums?
The 2021 lambs have certainly had to be separated here (someone evidently said they wanted sweetbreads as they've all been left with their bits intact) I know their humans find it difficult when they go to the abattoir, and flock is the ideal size for them here so 7 of the girls may be sold as a starter flock - so maybe one or two of the boys might be sold as breeding stock tooSave £12k in 2026 #2 I have banked £865.15 in January against a £10k target The 2026 Save £12k in 2026 thread is here

It’s shooting season, so pheasants are being released from rearing pens all over the place and being pests. They’ll only get up to fly if forced.3
