    I took the daughter to Central Plaza in Korat yesterday, the plan being to watch 'Aquaman 2 (her idea) with one of her classmates before they had their bass guitar lessons. It was gonna be a long afternoon, but I had prepared myself.

    When we arrived it soon became apparent that it was a 'girls afternoon' and I wasn't welcome to stay. Four 12 year-old girls had arranged the itinerary and I was told in no uncertain terms to leave. Bloody kids.

    On the way home I drove past the chicken shop and to console my disappointment I decided to add a couple more to the flock as we lost two birds over the Christmas holidays. Out of 40 odd chickens we're currently getting between 4 and 6 eggs a day and I'd like to increase production to a point where the dogs can have a fried egg on their tea twice a week, 'kai dao' style.



    I figured it would be a shame to split up the group on level 2 so I took all four, my own way of making merit for the New Year.



    Deal done... 880 Baht. The egg-layers used to be 200 Baht each but have recently gone up to 220 Baht per bird. I reckon to break even after around 40 to 50 eggs, not including food of course.



    Try as I might, I still have real trouble getting my head around why selfies flip everything around. This looks like either the chickens are in the driver's seat or that I'm driving a left-hand drive car. But it was our usual right-hand drive Vigo... and I was driving.



    Anyway, four new members for the flock.



    I always like to sit and watch the new gais () enjoy the first space they have ever experienced. They'll hopefully soon settle in and should start laying eggs within 3 or 4 weeks.



    While I watched, Lolita came over and hopped up onto my lap. One of the newbies saw this and came over to watch, so I reached down and picked her up to join Lolita. She was very comfortable with this and so I now have two birds to sit on my lap. This new lap-sitter will get a name, but none of the others will as they'll all look the same after a few weeks. It always amazes me how different the character of each chicken is after presumably coming from near identical genetic stock.

    That's Lolita sitting on my left leg (I wear the watch on my left wrist)... yeah, it's a real head-fukk at times.



    And there's Lolita teaching her new friend where to get food.



    As I'd come directly from Central Plaza I was still wearing my good gear for all of this, and when I took off my sandals I realised that I'd stepped in several chicken shits. I gave my sandals a good whack against each other and to my dismay both soles split at exactly the same place. They're Josef Seibel as well... good quality sandals and they weren't cheap.

    This has really pissed me off as I've been mulling over an early New Year passport trip to Bangkok next week to get in the application for the daughter's Aussie passport. It expired last year and I've been keeping this up my sleeve to break up an extended period at home.

    And now I'm fukked for footwear.

    I forgot to bring a pair of shoes and an extra pair of pluggas I've got 2 more days in Lao then onto bali where it may be possible to get a big size replacement? The footpaths are all busted ass here so I feel it's just a matter of time before 1 slipper/ thong can't take anymore. If me and d slippers make it home intact I will indeed buy this brand again

    ^ Sometimes these childish innuendos just aren't funny!


    After collecting the eggs today I sat down a while to watch the chickens and Lolita hopped up onto me knee as usual. I like ti watch the birds for a while every day to spot if any are sick or if there are any other problems. All looked well and my big white cock was looking particularly splendid today. He and Nelson still seem to be getting along just fine.

    The daughter came to join me and asked what was wrong with Lolita's eye? I wondered why she was asking, but as Lolita always sits on my left leg I could only see her right eye which looked just fine.



    However her left eye was closed up. I sent the daughter off to the fridge to see if we had any eye drops, and we were in luck.



    I've found that human medicine is way cheaper than animal medicine and these eye drops have done the trick before. I gave Lolita's left eye a good bathe and after 20 minutes or so it opened up. Hopefully it will be back to normal tomorrow.

    Thanks for the commentary.

    Could easily be misconstrued as photos of you choking the chicken while squirting on lube.

    ^ Not a proverb that I'm familiar with, to be honest.

    It doesn't sound like an Aussie one?


    This morning Lolita's left eye was still open but seems to be a bit sunken and I'm not sure how much sight she has from it at the moment. I'll keep bathing it and hopefully it'll come good.



    She definitely favours her beady right eye.

    ^ hopefully her eye improves, asap.


    ^^ Mendip is more of a Lucky Pierre, he has two cocks to manage, one brown, one white (and does so expertly).

    There was a chicken called Mike that lived for 18 months without a head, when his Mendip was seeing to them with an ax, but part of the brain stayed on the stem. Made the owner a fortune.


    Mike the Headless Chicken - Wikipedia


    Was bringing in the equiv of $60k a month in today's money.

    Just in case the Rig-Pig jobs dry up.

    ^^ Why flip 'em over?

    ^ I don't like that kind of thing, to be honest.


    Anyway, a big shout out to Nelson today... last night he became a father again.

    Two eggs, two chicks. Nothing but quality sperm in the Mendip household.



    Or of course, Whitey could be the father of one or both, or maybe one chick is Nelson's child and the other is his Grandchild.

    The relationships within this flock are almost as confusing as those within the wife's extended Isaan family!

    But not quite.

    ^ Thank you Topper!

    She brought her two chicks out into the big wide world yesterday, much to Lola's fascination.



    And the proud father/fathers. The more time I spend with it, my big white cock is becoming more and more tame and I hope to be able to handle it soon.



    I had a slight go at the gardener today. While I was away for the weekend he put more eggs under a couple of broody bantams and yet again he used the wild hen eggs. The problem is, almost all of these wild hens originate from Nelson and I'm becoming increasingly concerned about inbreeding as Nelson mates with his daughters, granddaughters, great granddaughters etc. My big white cock will also be related to pretty much all of the wild girls in the run as well.

    I told the gardener to only put the brown eggs from the egg-layers under the broody hens as they are introducing new genetic stock to the flock.

    As usual, the gardener said, 'yes boss, yes boss', and then completely fukking ignored me.

    Maybe I wasn't explaining 'inbreeding' that well, although you would have thought anyone living in Isaan would be an expert on the subject.

    You do understand that the eggs of your red hens would have been fertilised by Nelson if at all. So not really new gentics.

    Mate sometimes you astound me with your lack of understanding. To introduce new genetics you need to bring in a new cock not new hens. have you ever seen a farmer cull all his cows and keep the same bull, no of course not they get rid of the old bull and bring in a new one.

    Gid rid of Nelson! If you like i could introduce him to my flock of hens (all 4 of them).

    Not really a lack of understanding mate, just badly worded.

    I see that no new genetic stock will be introduced to the overall flock long term, but at least if I only breed from the brown eggs (from the red egg-layers) there is no chance of inbreeding, as these hens are completely unrelated to Nelson.

    The first generation offspring from the jungle fowl - hybrid egg layers cross come out quite interesting and are often pure white (hence my cock). They are also good layers of small sized eggs which are great for pickling.

    You can't have Nelson I'm afraid, he's very happy in his home. And before you ask, you can't have my big white cock either.

    My two broody hens currently.

    The egg sitting in the nest box to the left was laid this morning by one of the red egg-layers, and will likely be served up with soldiers tomorrow for breakfast.



    And to show what a great nest box an old spirit house makes. The hen to the rear is the broody one, the one to the fore temporarily joined her this morning to lay a fresh egg.

    ^ Very good.

    I like to spoil the girls mate, it keeps my cock happy.

    The spirit house was falling apart so I was just making use of it. Nothing more eggciting than that.

    you are supposed to take it in the pick up with several dozen black bags of rubbish and find a suitably unmolested piece of roadside to offload it on - tiz the Thai way

    Back when I had a pet monkey I put our old and falling apart spirit house in the monkeys cage after consulting with the buddhists in the family of course.. He loved it.
