Ask her if she can do fishbone braids, when I had long hair down to my ass, it was so much better due to the flatness of the braid, I could lay down and not have a bigass bump on the back of my head. Won't matter on a beard, but just another option.

Whats up mate always glad to here from the other side of the planet. I am glad you included a picture because i had no idea what a chook was :ROFLMAO: I can remember growing up we had a couple of Banty roosters running around. Defiantly not the cuddly type in fact you had better give them a pretty wide birth when walking around:whistle:

Haha I didn't know chook either until @SaintyMcCunt posted last year on another forum about cleaning out his chook pen for @Uncle Rom to camp out in lol. Where is Sainty? He was a funny guy from down under.

Let me tell you about Texas radio
and big beat
The DJ’s played records
Squinting in the morning light, they found
the chooks had written F-U-C-K on the windshield.

@Capt. C, I have never been brave enough to ask anyone what a chook was.
I figured the white folk wouldn’t know, and I wouldn’t risk offending anyone else.

Is good to have friends from all over.
I learned something today !

Yes egg production 100% they are my compost makers along with the Cavies , I have a close friend where we have pigs , goat , sheep , cows ,ducks , chickens that we grow on for our meat . I try to leave very little carbon foot print because of the industry I work in which is heavy civil landscaping.

It is a fine selection , Drop.
If you went to the closest McDonalds restaurant , and ordered a burger, what animal would the meat come from ? and would there be Beet Root available?
heavy civil landscaping.
That is the occupation of a 'cat-skinner', where I am from. ( operates a 'Catterpillar' , 'de-skins' top soil)

Operators are always a good crowd, just dont F' with them :cool:

I hear you but our company uses top soils to go back on sight for us to plant into this job we took 705,000 ton and few worked it to 695,000 ton I spent from last Xmas day through to 4 months ago stripping up top soil every cut was the deepest it killed me but we did a good job retaining the amount we are working with now this park is 3 acres so far they want us to start the next 4 acres by Xmas day so I’ll be back on my 50 ton machine with laser height set and cry all over again .

goddamn... what implications does that have on erosion control? what about the decades-long impact of such work? It has to be monumental...

Reminds me of working in the oil patch. Coming in after they'd fracked a well, and seeing the open face pits of chemical and oil sitting in the middle of a cotton field. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Not to be that guy but... well fuck it I guess I'm that guy lol... I think ISA is actually the name of the company that bred the ISA Browns as a sex link chicken in the 70s... crazy enough ISA Browns are actually a copyrighted breed...

On a sadder note... I lost my favorite chook a couple days ago... my sister's dog chased one of my marans into the woods and she never returned... heard fishers crying all night so, pretty sure she's food now. My only marans hen too. I am muy sad about it.

Hey mate I must of missed you comment love that lot of chooks you have nice to have a variety in the mix . I’m doing much better had that nerve culled and I’m back into work so fingers crossed I can keep on working .

Glad to hear your on the rebound man! Been wondering how you were holding up down under. Hope your garden and flock have held up while you were healing brother!

My flock looks a little different these days. Gave away the roos, too aggressive for my liking. Little Falcon got into the run and got the Houdan. Lost a couple to a respiratory disease that ran through the flock. Caught the biggest fox I've ever seen trying to get into the coop too... predators are getting bold as the winter wears on.

Few new additions though...

I call this girl Henzilla... she's gotta weigh a good 8 or 9 pounds
