Rain, rain and more rain....

The weather has been grubby for several days and it's not looking any better. At least I don't have to water anything.
Gretel has moved into the horsebox as she looks heavily pregnant. Maybe we will finally get some piglets this year ?
The rats have worked out a cunning way to get to the barley and I had to build a feed store inside the caravan and move half a tonne of barley from the outhouse into the caravan.
I have ordered 4 automatic door openers from Germany and 3 new electric poultry fences from Mole Valley Farmers.
Chicks are hatching everywhere and half of the hens are broody, so egg sales are way down.

This week I am planning to get a tonne of stock feed tatties (potatoes) for the pigs to reduce the feed bill and get a hand baler built by next week.
