    Australians - Where are you all????

    I'm glad your going to put the time and training into your pups. All my dogs have been adult rescues. Most dogs from a reputable rescues don't have issues basic training can't fix, it's just that sadly they have sometimes had no training prior to coming into rescue. Most will be worked with...

    Hey Guinea, if you prefer older dogs to puppies why not just adopt an older dog? There are so many wonderful dogs looking for their furever homes.

    All that work for a Poodle Chrissy? Boy am I glad I talked someone I know out of getting one! She was set on a getting 'a cute fluffball' and I pointed out getting the fluffball groomed regularly would be expensive. She didn't even realize they needed clipping to keep them looking good! A lady...

    Do yours actually eat all the Red Hen? I liked it but they wasted so much they only get pellets in the hoppers now and treats, no free access grain. Pity because I'd happily give them the Red Hen if they ate it all.

    Ducky, obviously I've missed it back further but who is Noggy? I feel sorry for your blind duckie, she's lucky to have a good person to look after her. I have a nearly completely blind wether goat so I have some idea what it's like for her. He cries when he loses the herd or when it rains and...

    Quote: How far are you from Kyneton?? not sure if its too far out of my way to consider a detour to pick you up. If you are really keen- there are a number of forums and poultry groups on Facebook where you could post looking for someone else going over. Offer a few dollars towards petrol-...

    Quote: Wish I had your luck. I hatched a batch of 16 chicks and got 14 little roos. Hope you have a good breeding season with your guineas. I think they are pretty but if I had them here they'd camp in the trees next door and annoy the neighbors. Love the chick pics, I'm hoping my broody...

    Looks like more rain coming here. We had nearly 4" last week, things are just finally drying out and it's supposed to start today and rain every day for a week. Time to fit my chickens with flippers I think. I have tarps up everywhere, looks like tent city out back. I've decided once I get my...

    Yup, that's the sale I usually go too Ducky. It is run by the Lions and they have an amazing range of poultry there usually. I hope your sale does go ahead, that quarantine keeps everything under control.

    I heard it spread to the racing pigeons in Shep on the news. I wonder if the local poultry auction went ahead today? They had it still advertised in the paper this week. I didn't go, last thing I want to do is bring home that as a souvenir! I assume they banned pigeons but I worry people might...

    Awwww what a cute duckling! I'd love some ducks to hunt slugs and snails in the veggie patch. I have wild ones visiting my paddock at the moment because one of the water troughs overflowed and flooded part of it. They are getting very bold and just sit and watch me walk by buy it's not the...

    Quote: Where are you? I'm about that far north of Shep. I was planning on popping in to the local auction next weekend but will be staying well away now. I'm assuming it's canceled anyway but you never know. I was also going to pick up some new birds from a breeder about 5 min from Shep so I...

    Hi all, just checking in here. Hope you boy does well today Ducky. I have chicks due on Monday, planning on turning the 'bater off then. It hasn't been off since I bought it early this year! I haven't hatched as many as I'd hoped due mainly to fertility issues with bought eggs. I do have...
