Hi Jane,

How big is that fry now, a couple of centimetres?

Hi Jane,been a bit busy and had a problem with my eyes,nearly blind,at one point, it's bit better now and with some more laser treatment should be back to nearly normal.
I am keeping my eye on you,the good one, and watching the count down.
Look after yourself and keep well for the big event.

Hi Jane
What make's you say you think that that fry
is for culling? He look's like he has a good colour
and he is a bit small yet, give him a bit longer
bless him. I loved the film, you have some yellow in
there. I wish you all the luck in the world and I know
you will enjoy every minute.

By the way what on earth are going to do with them all

Here we go another update of my babies, glad to say we are doing well with them and still have lots

heres a couple of pics taken last week

So what colour will this one turn out to be?

and now the big one , we found this one swimming in the main vat on his own so he must be piggin out as hes nearly double the size of the rest

What culling have you carried out, or are you going to rear everything?
