Guess what we have just inherited - 11 Babies. Not real children but real enough for us to call them our babies. A few days ago we had 11 Baby chickens born, 11 small cute, little, coloured fuzzy babies. Grey, White, Brown, Black and multi-coloured mixtures. From 31 chickens we now have 42 chickens on our farm as well as 4 paradise ducks. Our farm is just growing day by day. Now that is one part of going to sea which I miss. I miss our farm and all our animals, it’s just one of those sacrifices which we have to make. It’s hard. Maybe one day I will find a job (short stints away at sea) where I can work on a ship as well as also living on a farm at the same time. So with 11 more babies joining our family now we are going to be quite busy parents for the next couple of months now. I wonder what ever did happen to the light brown mother chicken that disappeared about 4 weeks ago - We will just have to wait and see...
