Thanks a lot Matt. Hope things are well your end.

BiG thanks John ⭐

I'm dreaming also mate. I'd like to see us win at least one tournament in my lifetime lol. Totally lovin the farm at the moment but missing my wingman, I mean wingwoman.

How rude of you. It's definitely a virus.

@@ToonLeighporpeangfarmThailand Nonsense!

@@drchancer1098 nonsense would be taking medical advice from an individual online who calls themself a doctor rather than follow the advice of four doctors (who all agree on the diagnosis.) Nah, not having it from someone who hasn't even examined the patient & is unaware of of all the symptoms. Nonsense indeed.

@@ToonLeighporpeangfarmThailand OK up to you.... keep taking those synthetic pharmaceuticals! 🙄

Thanks JG, she'll be back 💪

I'm wondering if you'd last a day working along side Toon and myself 🤔

Thanks mate. It's great watching the changes over the years.

Cheers mate.

Thank you Marietta, that's very much appreciated here.

GeeJaa is a lovely girl, a bit quirky, but lovely.

Cheers Paul, she'll bounce back. It's just going to take a while.

Indeed mate. I even sometimes throw some in the lake. It floats round for a few days & eventually ends up on the marginal shelf. Basic Kon-Tiki kilns are acceptable for CC, although being smaller, would be more labor intensive for us. We'd be willing to switch over from making it in cone pits but it's the huge volume that's the main issue. It's a shame because 100% of our feedstock is a renewable byproduct from the goats. We have more than enough manure & urine to inoculate it & enough available land suitable as the Carbon Sink site. I can see why there's strick guidelines for creating carbon credits that can be checked & monitored, but man some of these companies are creaming it. Most are not interested in small-medium sized projects. Whatever the outcome, our final goal is to have a self sustaining herd by cultivating enough fodder so we don't have to drive off farm (apart from to get their shots & supplements.) Thankfully, the goat market recovery is creeping along!

Cheers Duncan, she'll be back 💪

Brilliant. They are very impressive looking creatires 👍

Chance would be a fine thing! 🤣

I can see what you're attempting to do 🧐

Thanks David, I'm sure she'll be back to her full powers soonish.

Think we need a few park benches dotted around the lake to encourage us to just sit and enjoy the surroundings more 🤣

Heaven forbid!!!!

Cheers Craig, much appreciated matey.

Cheers Glenn. Yeah I hold my hands up on that one. In my defense, I hadn't even finished my first coffee of the morning. My brain patterns were still out of sync.

Thanks Nate. The last two nights Toon finally managed a few undisturbed hours sleep. Looks like she's on her way back 💪

Cheers Dermot. The doctor said it's going to take her a couple more months to be pain free but she's finally managing to get a bit more sleep 👍

Lovin that ⭐🏆⭐

Thanks Michael 👍👍👍

Thank you for your kind words Brigit. I'm sure Toon will be making an appearance soon as she feels up to it 😉

Thanks mate 👍

Oh, I'll have to Google those mate, they're new ones on me 👍

Cheers Brian. I've nicknamed them Ear Bleeders! Incredibly, we've just had two set up their home in & around the fruit trees next to the house. They usually stay around the lake & nest directly on the road or the rocky parts of the island. I'm apprehensive about cutting the grass now. Do you know if they would make a nest in the grass?

It's something everyone is aware of out here. I always put lotion on apart from the colder dry months (although deet isn't great for you either.) I know certain animals, including horses, can get it but unsure about goats. Thankfully, selenium is good for combating it & us & the goats get plenty of that 😉

The island is due to be turned into the jewel of Porpeang Farm lol. We just have to wait until something top secret is in place! Until then we occasionally let the herd run around on it like lunatics 😉

You didn't win the league to qualify for a goat to be named Gooner 🤣

We finished above you was the deal mate. So Don’t back out now. Look forward to seeing little Gooner.

Brilliant Si lol. Thanks for your kind words.

Thank you muchly 👍👍👍

Thanks GJ. Horrible to see Mrs Crabtree in so much pain. Last night she finally fell asleep once the sun came up. Thank God she's the strongest person I know.

@@ToonLeighporpeangfarmThailand They broke the mould....

When was that?

Thank you. Unfortunately, we took the decision to no longer raise any poultry. Rising feed costs, large predators (pythons & monitor lizards) & so many crows stealing eyes made it unviable for us.

@ToonLeighporpeangfarmThailand that's a shame,, anyway, good luck with whatever your doing now, all the best

Thanks Lynda

That's brilliant to hear thanks mate. We have nothing but fond memories of your two little action heroes 👍

You could integrate the two together. The goat floor would ideally need to be a bit higher off the ground than ours for easier access to the chickens. They'd also need a few roof sheets above them to keep the goats from peeing on them at night.
