Beautiful clear morning but it’s definitely getting colder now! Happy to see the call ducks enjoying them selfs this morning in the thick grass in the field.
The view from the back field this evening was stunning! 💙🌌 You can see right across the water to Fort George and across over into the next valley.
My favourite place! A field filled with donkeys and horses in stunning Cumbria at Parkgate Farm Holidays! The perfect place to relax and take in your surroundings! Not sure it’s a good idea me visiting too often as possibly gives me a few to many livestock related ideas! 🤣🫣 You never know what coming next at Brae croft! 🙈
Sunny morning on the #blackisle The Omlet - World Famous Pet Products breeders pens have the best view! 💙 The birds are lucky to live in such a gorgeous part of the world 🌎
Hatching season has definitely started for us here at brae croft. Lots of chicks around at the moment and more hatching on a weekly basis! 🙈
Our duck breeding pens! 💙 We use lush grassy areas for the ducks, it means they never get super muddy runs and all the water just runs away! We use small dog paddling pools in there areas these are perfect for call ducks and the larger runner ducks can also happily fit in the large versions of the pools. We use the Omlet - World Famous Pet Products go coops for them, with no run. They are in enclosed areas either with stock fencing or omlet fencing. (We clip our ducks wings - a totally harmless process.) Some of our duck area like the one below have netting over the top too as an extra pro caution. This would be definitely needed if the ducks wings weren’t clipped.
Look who finally came off her nest! 😍 Barbra and Frank have successfully hatched 20 keets! She is such a good mummy and Frank has taken to them like a champ! He’s even calling them under him to stay warm! How cute!? We have a few reservations on them and I will be keeping all the others to grow on. 🙈 We have a few lavender keets and all the others are Grey Guineas! 🥰
