Hello!! That’s Monday done and dusted! (more dusted I think)
I started with my winter rose photo instead of chook poo just in case some of you were having breakfast or a cuppa… so fair warning…
It wasn’t a bad day – the sun was mostly out. A good day to balance a few more wedding photo processing before getting my gardening clothes on to go and sort out the chicken coop, which was getting fairly manky.
Blah!
On with the gloves!
I gave the big compost a bit of a turning then dumped all the chook-poo-hay on top.
It can now do its thing – lots of worms in there. Hopefully all usable by mid-late spring.
Look! I can balance hay AND take selfies!
So much nicer!
I figured a decent handful of herbs festooned around the coop wouldn’t go astray… plenty of rosemary (for remembrance? They can remember about laying more eggs) and a bit of basil-mint.
(and fennel)
I poked it in all over the place, including the nesting boxes
The coop smelled awesome when I went back to close the girls in for the night!
Glad that job is done.
I then had a good scrub up in the shower and went down to catch up with Ruby for a cuppa where we swapped snow stories!
Where as I loved my day in the snow, she didn’t have the same sense of joy when she lived in Waratah nursing and sloshing through the half melted snow in winter to visit patients around town!
Hope everyone has a great start to the week!
Cheers!
