The Shark Rocket HV320 Vacuum Cleaner-A Review

June 15, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

When you live on a farm, it is a constant battle to keep the floors clean. Thankfully, in our downstairs which houses our kitchen/diner, it is all tiled. That is not to say I could sweep it 16 times a day and it would still need more. You would think though with our living area … [Read more…]

Five Reasons You Need to Keep Chickens as Pets

April 19, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 8 Comments

If you follow me on social media, you can’t have missed what can only be described as chicken-spam, flooding your feeds. I have kept chickens before but, when I was just about to have Baby G, Hubster sold my last lot of chucks to a workman as he said he was not prepared to look … [Read more…]

Do you have a dog or many dogs like us? If you do and they are not microchipped, this time next month, you will be breaking the law. From the 6th April 2016 it will become a legal requirement for all dogs in England, Wales and Scotland to be microchipped with the keeper’s details registered … [Read more…]

5 Things You Need for a New Puppy

March 15, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 7 Comments

Our house is a cross between Pets at Home and Toys R Us at the moment, what with children and dogs. I wrote a post a while back about 5 reasons dogs are like babies and, after the puppies, I can vouch that it is all true. Thankfully, unlike babies, you don’t need all of … [Read more…]

Another Puppy and a Bit of a Change Around

March 5, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Since my last post about getting our little Norfolk terrier puppy, Ruby, things have changed around here quite a bit. Originally when we had gone to get Ruby, I had my eye on her sister too. I asked Hubster for them both which he said no to but, I winked at the owner and said … [Read more…]

5 Reasons I Love Being A Farmer’s Wife

February 16, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

I love animals. Always have. If you had told me when I was younger though, that I would be a farmer’s wife, I don’t think I would have believed you. It is a different way of life, farming. Far different from anything I ever imagined. Not least because unlike other couples, we live together and … [Read more…]

Our New Puppy

January 22, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 13 Comments

I’ve wanted another dog for ages. I knew that if anything ever happened to Rosie, I would find it very hard to replace her (she is irreplaceable) so I thought I would like a puppy while she is still with us. My dream was to open a box on Christmas morning and have a beautiful … [Read more…]

Our Animal Inventory 2015

January 15, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I thought it might be a fun thing to do an animal inventory. Not an official one of course, I don’t think DEFRA are too bothered about my bunny village but, as a blogger (rather than a farmer’s wife), I do tend to shield my readers from the coal-face of animal keeping. We have had … [Read more…]

5 Ways Babies are Like Dogs

January 5, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 9 Comments

Many couples get themselves a cat or a dog when they first get married or move in together. I think it is a subtle way of marking their commitment. We too acquired a fur-baby when we moved in together. Rosie is now 8 and I still think of her as my first fur-born. The baby … [Read more…]

Naughty farmer’s wife favouring some animals over others

March 26, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

Do you remember the uproar not so long ago when a parent admitted they preferred one of their children over the other? Then some other parents jumped on the band wagon and said they felt the same. Well as a farmer’s wife, I feel I should love all of the animals equally but, like those … [Read more…]
