    Hi teachnkids. Welcome!!! I also live south of Durban the availability of big breeds is rather minimal here, although I know someone who wants to rectify that. At the moment main breed to buy that is often readily available are rhode island reds and hylines. I have 4 rir girls.

    Hahaha yes well... seems the southern hemisphere folk are always at odds when it comes to sport. 3rd in rugby wasn't bad though (behind NZ and Aus)... but we will get there one day. I too was once a deserter and lived waaay up north on mud island (uk) but alas I suck at it and the pull to come...
