Ponytail Palms – self watering pots

One of  our Ponytails is not doing well so while at the Caribbean market on Sunday purchased another one from Jayson @ The Greener The Better. Jayson suggested the problem might be too much water and to e-mail some pictures to him for a better look.

Above: The one on the left is not doing well and the other could be heading the same way.

New chooks–day four

Bella (white) Peaches and Honey busy doing their thing.

New Pekins–day four

Day four and the new chooks are providing plenty of entertainment.

Holly – relaxing

I'll get moving later in the day...no hurry.

Chook annex rebuild - Part 1A

Planning to rebuild

The main chook run has a annex which is one of our previous gazebo's with wire mesh around the sides, chicken wire above and a tarp over that.

I'm going to pull all that down and rebuild the annex (same as the main run) with star pickets, poles, pine framing with gable and a poly roof - and new gate/door.

New chooks – day two

Day two and the little Pekins (Bella, Peaches & Honey) are settling in well - so entertaining!

Chook Cam - temporary setup.

Setup a wireless colour camera in the run to monitor the little girls with the receiver connected to the Soniq 32" TV in the kitchen/meals area. As posted earlier I'll get the Cocoon Outdoor HD Wireless IP Camera from ALDI next Wednesday.
