Hi guys
I have a small problem with breeding fergies.
I decided I needed to buy a tractor for our small holding. The local version of ebay in nz, trade me. had an add for two 35hp fergie tractors in pieces. In a fit of insanity I purchased these two only to find one was a tea 20 the other a fe 35.

Both had been striped of easily stolen parts whilst sitting on a deceased estate.
Thinking I may find another for the missing parts I cruised the local back roads and found another complete and very rusty tea 20 at the side of the road waiting to go for scrap steel...
100 bucks later!
Three.
Still needing viable tinware and radiator for the tea20 I spied another cheap 35 on trade me that strangely had the missing tea20 parts I needed included.

On inspection its a orchardised gold belly fe35 under the layers of grey, dark grey, red, orange and green paint.
That makes four in a month.
The question I have for you experienced gentleman... is there an cure for this rampant reproduction or do they continue to breed at such a prolific rate?
I am finding restoring the tractors a rewarding and challenging pastime and hope to have the tea20 finished and painted in time for our NZ summer.
