Australians - Where are you all????

[TinaK]

oh guinea fowl

I hope that your egg / chick survives. I have my fingers crossed for you!

Now a question to all you fellow Aussies... I'm looking for some help!!

I have moved to 'the middle of nowhere' as everyone likes to call it.... and around the corner is a free range egg farm. EVERYONE in the district gets their chickens from this egg farm as 2 year old, past their prime, layers. They are all ISA browns and although I love them, I really really want some 'other' breeds of chooks like some Cornish, Wyandottes... anything really! You think living in the country i'd be able to find some!

Is getting eggs from someone on here and incubating them myself the best option? I'd like to branch out and try incubating.... but I'd need an incubator first! Anyone here selling one by any chance?

Lonely should still have a friend/s. I hope.

I just feel soooo bad.
If this chick hatches I'm going to call it lucky.

Lucky and Lonely! That'll be so cute.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Yeah, get something different. Be the wierd one of the town

I don't have an incubator for sale. But I'd be able to post you eggs.

I'm going to make a 'hat' for it. Out of another shell.
I'll post pictures of it.​

Hey Ray, you remember my little girl that I called Lucky?

Here is what she looks like now.

Thanks

All of my girls seem to like to sit in that tree

I cut most of it down to make it easier for them to get to it better.​
