Free on fair isle to everyone feeding sheep.. shot blast hail exfoliation treatment..
Yes, by the time I had been round feeding geese, turkeys, ducks, pigs & sheep my face had reached that point of stingyness where numbness sets in.. Im told i had a lovely rosy glow.
Not a grand day today, found my nankin rooster had gotton on the wrong side of a gust & didnt survive. Its the one breed I really want to spec in up here as there are only 2 breeders with clean lines in the uk, replacing him is going to be a massive headache & may involve being sent up to 4 doz hatching eggs before we manage to hatch another perfect male nankin.
Also discovered 2 of my *hens* are not hens.. The tails on these 2 birds have become so battered with the winds that there are no traces of curled tail feathers left, anyhoo, this morning they both decided to show us just how male they are. No matters, cochin is a good rooster to have around for breeding huge broiler stock, he is a massive chicken.
Am contemplating waiting till this afternoon, expected gusts 90mph+ and taking a trip down to south light with the camera where the waves promise to be pretty spectacular in the SE gusts.

I certainly hope my karma is good enough that I won't be re-incarnated as rooster in Orkney. Sounds rather rough out your way. Do you have to wear helmets when you folks go out (flying coconuts and such ...)?
