Mirky's animal kingdom............

Just because I've been a bit quiet on the animal front don't think I've not been bang on it.

Went to Chatuchak market last Saturday to buy the owls a new home. Cost me nearly 4000 baht but they are well happy now. Bought them a nice cage with loft area. They hide in there most of the time all happy.

Siamese fighting fish doing well. As most of the Thai breeders know me at market I've been offered 'special' animals.

First on the list is 100% true blooded Siam fighting fish. They are a bit different from what you see on the stalls. These fish are 500 baht each as opposed to 5-50 baht each. Bit dull in colour but they are the original Siam fish. Show winners and boy can they have a scrap. You only see these now and again and I feel privileged to have been offered the best at the market. Once payday arrives I'll be buying a couple for sure. We have fish in every room now. Cracking looking and badly violent. As soon as they see another one BANG. Thai. As usual nutty.

Birds.....

Well you know me. I've got my heart set on an eagle or big bird of prey.
I won't just get one. I've done my homework. I was member of YOC when I was a kid and loved birds of prey. I have more of an idea than a newbie. The thing is with birds of prey if you get it wrong they die instantly. The whole thing is a mega hobby for me and Porno. We love them to bits. All the going to market buying food. We are partners in it all the way. Love it.

I've got plenty of room now. Balcony is going to be housing the hawk. I'll set everything up first. I'm planning on flying and training one properly. Been reading falconers websites and courses.

I've learnt you have to get a hawk from a baby or you will never be able to tame one. Last week I went through all the feeding lark and having one on my arm. Fookin claws are sharp. They are big bastards as well.

Been offered about 4 different ones around 4000 baht.

I know it's mental having all these nutty animals but I've decided something. This whole thing is a once in a lifetime experience. The chances if me getting a yuppie job and living in LOS were a million to one. Lets be honest.

It's a fucking mad place and I'm filling my boots. I'm living with a bi sexual sex addict and if I wake up in the morning and want to buy an eagle I'm going for it.

One day I'll be on that deathbed waiting for them to switch off machine.

I fucking won't be wondering ' What if '

I've made a safety plan should I lose my job. Porno's nephew Nong Arm is a little bastard. He's about 14 and loves owls,hawks and fighting fish. Should I got bullet from work I'm paying him to take care of anything I buy. He's happy with that and as he's a natural with hunting animals I feel fine.

Ollie and Barney.

Last but not least on the list is an Asian Fairy Bluebird.
We are going to buy one with a posh fancy cage. Got the dealer sorted. Cost of bird is 1200 baht. Cage 3000 baht.
Not difficult to take care of. Easy peasy compared to birds of prey.

Just to close. If any of you are ever in a position to own/buy a bird of prey then go for it. I've never experienced anything as good as owning one. Hard work but worth it. I'd be gutted not getting up early sorting the food etc.

Loving it. The animal part is easily as good as the shagging sluts for me.
