Snake article, has been a bit of buzz about over it.

Can google search 'snake eats croc' and check out the images, there are a fair few.

Thanks Ben. Makes me wonder if the croc was sick or dead first. It should have been able to get away from a snake of that size easily Cool pics though.

The snake was full. Wouldn't have taken any more and you could see the crocs outline ! Funny. The people said I wasn't hanging around as if it was going to try attack for more food !

LOl little do people know it would not be moving very fast for days after a meal like that.

I am guessing you are in nsw? Try gumtree or freecycle if you have no luck else where.

Hello everyone! Long time no see.

I went on a bit of a hiatus there for a while. Life just got in the way I guess.

Some updates on my flock:
Unfortunately I lost my Black Australorp and Salmon Fav to sickness, so was devastated there

I bought a Black Naked Neck and Silver Dorking to replace them. All was going well with them, completed the quarantine and introduced them to the others.
After a week of being in there, I found the NN dead in the middle of the run, with no explanation as to why. She was fine the previous day

Then I was gifted two Black Utility layers - thankfully they are going well. So this brings my tally to 9 girls.


I've had rotten luck with my chickens of late.

I hope everyone else's birds are doing well.

One of my young pheasants we hatched escaped yesterday, he was just hanging out by the fish pond so I came over and eat down next to him and started tapping at the ground. He ran over to my finger and scratched the dirt beneath it, pecking through to see what he could find. I don't think it even crossed his mind to fly away, he was easier to catch than a chicken... so I started a new pheasant aviary and here is the progress so far. The boys enjoyed their cricket treats, they munched them too quick for an action shot
