    Fox Attack

    Since the fox attack I have set up lots of solar lights on a continuous length and lock my goats and sheep in the shed and yard which is alongside my poultry yards every night. I also lock all my chooks away in a fox proof area every night. No problems so far.

    heat wave this week

    I have the same problem heat wave in western australia!!! I've resorted to putting my silkies and quail in my air/con garage to keep them safe. My chooks are still in the chook run and I've been hosing water into their areas which are quite large. Hate the heat worry of bush fires too.
