Did someone say Chickens????

4 02 2009

Once again I would like to thank all the people who chipped in last year to help us create a chicken run for layers … this is a chippin that keeps on giving.  We purchased 100 day olds last year and even though we had a large amount die due to bad feed and then have about half of our remaining stock stolen we have still managed to save enough money to buy our next round of day old layers.  Better still, we have been able to supply Samkele as well as the Sandra Jones Baby’s Home with eggs (not a HUGE amount … but enough to keep them going).

 

On Friday we are expecting our next round of day old chicks to arrive in Bulawayo.   If we have 100 of these chicks survive to lay that will mean that we can give provide at least 1 tray of eggs to both Samkele and the Sandra Jones Baby Home each week.  I will post some pictures later this week when they arrive.

Howdy I have totally forgotten to give you all an update on Jodi and I. The last you heard we were down in Cape Town … well …. we are back in Zim …. We actually arrived back about a month ago but I forgot to tell you all about it. Jodi and I had a wonderfully relaxing time in Cape Town, just chilling and taking in all the sights and sounds. My parents also joined us whilst we were down there and then travelled back up to Zim with us. It was great to see my parents again and have them come back up to Zim again to get another glimpse of what life is like over here. The year is only just beginning and there is so much that is on the agenda. My endeavour this week is to post a blog each day to fill you in on what has been happening and what is about to happen (stay tuned because in a day or two I have some MASSIVE NEWS to share with you all).

Here are some pics of our holiday … enjoy!!!
