Hi all - Just thought I would introduce myself. I am Sue and live on the Worcestershire/Herefordshire borders - lovely Elgar country.
I have kept the old traditional English Cuckoo Marans for many years now, just concentrating on getting them to lay plenty of good, large, dark brown shelled eggs. I also have a selection of ducks, some Rouen and Rouen St Clair, and some crested apricot and miniature silver appleyard which are all supposed to be eating slugs from the garden, but instead spend their lives loafing about by the pond :roll: And this year have got some geese, one African and 3 Giant Flemish who should be helping to graze the field, but prefer to stay with the duck :roll: :roll:
Over the years I have kept lots of different birds and animals, and I grow the fruit and veg for the house, so keep pretty busy really.
Look forward to chatting about various things
All the best
