A dodgy deal in the school carpark with my neice Kerri and this is what I come out with....2 week old baby chicks, now named Kath & Kim. The school had 10 eggs to hatch and ended up with 5 boys and 5 girls. The poor boys are to be sent back to the company who supplied the eggs due to the no rooster policy in the shire of Wanneroo.
Spent most of the day trying to sort out a heated broodery for them, get food etc. The are plonked in a box in a cage in the middle of the floor at the moment. They are quite chirpy and active. I need to keep them under light for 6 weeks more, seems like a long time and god knows what that will do to my ever mounting leccy bill.
Got Oscar from school, quick hug and a kiss before I have to head off. Work was okay, quite quiet although the hospital itself was chocca, one poor bloke was still in obs from the night before. Such a cool old gent, 81 years old, long grey hair in a pony tail, peirced ear and such a wealth of knowledge, he certainly didn't look in his 80's. Late 60's would easily pass.
Elliot is still suffering with his cold, blocked nose, sore throat, poor lamb. Too ill to even play squash, must be bad.
