Sunday

It is so hard to believe that these guys only arrived such a short time ago-- It is an awful day today- AGAIN  very wet and cold...but both of them aren't bothered at all by this climate- albeit that there are puddles and mud around...thankfully we can keep the yards clean....and they are quite tidy little kiwis- they really don't make much of a mess with the hay. They have had sooo many visitors now that humans are quickly becoming a non issue...there were a few snorts by the bigger boy and the little chap just likes to check everything out so we have been able to take people into the pens and generally just chill out with them and hang around leaning on posts and yawning a lot...It quickly desensitises them to anyone coming and going.  We've been feeding a little bit of hard feed daily and boy do they love it...so once we are able to move them a bit more accirately they will go out into the paddock...but we do have to make sure that they can be directed or driven in the right direction by us or they could just pop over the fence and gone....can't have that.  I feel Louka will be the one to share their paddock- he is just such a loveable and very calm character...He is the one that hangs around their gate more than Sarg and Gypsy...we'll see
