    I am glad you got Chickens... I got my baby chicks August of 2020... They started Laying by January and have been a lot of fun! I think everyone had changes in 2020... and now a year later we are still trying to push through all the nonsense and focus on having a good life! Your videos are such and encouragement... So happy to have found you!

    I get so excited when I see you've put up a new video! My vote is for chickens, hands down. More eggs, they eat more kitchen scraps, aren't as stinky, and if you want, the actual bird tastes better if you decide (or need) to eat them. Chicken fertilizer is an excellent addition to compost too. A tip that helps with keeping their food and water containers cleaner is to either hang them or put them on a pallet. Hanging them keeps the chickens from sitting in or on them because it feels unstable. Putting them on a pallet works like a mat to wipe your feet, the bits on their feet get knocked off a bit before they get to the feeder/waterer. Another thing to keep in mind is that ducks wings have to be clipped and they like more water. Ducks are hilarious and their eggs are bigger, that's a plus for them! Thanks Nicki!

Love the colours, the dishes you create, the scenic excursions! You would have to be the most stylish gardener! I like the matter of fact way you talk about the pros and cons of life there, without complaint.

    I'm truly enjoying your weekly vlogs, thank you for taking the time to do it. Those cliffs, OMG, I never thought I was afraid of heights, but when I watch you all walking along on these hikes, I'm sitting here cringing lol. I love to hear Carlo speak Italian, it reminds me so much of my grandfather. I wish I had learned more of it. Thank you also for the great book suggestions, they all sound wonderful. I miss Italy specifically the Amalfi Coast, I hope to get back there one day! Looking forward to next week's vlog. It maybe boring to you, but the life you live there in Positano is just so different than like here in New Jersey. I love the complex and simplicity of it all.

    Glad you decided on chickens. Ducks are lovely too but apparently they are very messy. I miss our three Girls (PP, Cilla and Lulu). Thankfully we managed to find a forever home for them before we sold up and went overseas. Still not settled enough to have some more. They are such characters. We had no problems with our cat and the Girls.

    I am loving your videos! Thank you for all the time & effort you put in to show us what the locals live like in and around Positano :) Oh, and it looks like you live in Montepertuso. If so, I have been and adore that little hillside town. I chose to stay there instead of Positano because I wanted to experience a smaller towns with less tourism. I stayed at Il Pertuso B&B and LOVED it. Wonderful family and beautiful rooms. Definitely need a scooter to get around though! As I watched you hike all the way to the top of the mountain for lunch, I wondered if that was the path they call "Stairs to Heaven"? I never got the chance to do it but we did some lovely hikes around montepertuso and Nocelle. What a life you have Nicki! Thanks again for sharing.

    So our friends have ducks on their farm and although they are very cute, they are also messy creatures! Be prepared for lots and lots of poop! We also have friends who have chooks and they seem to be tidier.
    They have built cages where the ducks and chooks are free to roam during the day and locked up during the night to protect them from predators!
