The Apprentice

5/26/2022

The apprenticeship program 2022 is in full swing 😁.
All our puppies are now placed ‘in training‘ with the older Maremma dogs.

Here is Oddball checking on his novice companion, he is one tough boss to please 😆.

Hues of Autumn

5/19/2022

Collected some eggs for lunch, and came across these amazing hues. Can I cook them with the eggs?
“Like a late love that is sweeter than summer”, a lovely autumn sunny day at the farm.

Medal for Excellence from the Royal Agricultural Society

Nothing like an actual medal to drive away rainy melancholy of La Niña autumn 😁 🏅
Very honoured to receive Excellence medal from the Royal Agriculture Society of NSW. And what are medals for if not for bragging? #brag #medal #excellence #eggs #pasturedeggs

A throne with a view

5/5/2022

Excellent views, high side of the street, king-like position, looking over - but also down- onto the subordinate chicken population- what’s not to like?

Our two young apprentices, looking for a dry place after last night’s deluge, had climbed on top of the hay bales.
The apprentices (the beautiful puppies named in our @hyattregencysydney collaboration) are now all living in the flocks with the chickens, and working under the ‘guidance’ of our experienced Maremmas.

Notice the adult Maremma had not deemed it appropriate to clamber onto hay bales, as the young hotheads had. View may be nice, but what about dignity?
