Hi,

My name is Rochelle, although most people call me Rowie for short. I live on a couple of acres 2 hours south of Sydney. I am looking to start up a flock of chooks and ducks, despite my parents disapproval for such! lol!

I am having to move back home due to my many medical conditions that are worsening, and I am finding it very difficult to work. Currently I am working in the dental industry on a part time basis.

I love all animals! I have an Old English Sheepdog, named Holmes, a maine coon x ragdoll cat, Ella, and finally three eclectus parrots, Rosie, Lola and Charlie. My pets are everything to me. I would not want to live in a world without animals. I also do horse riding lessons, as my other love are horses and highland cattle (luckily a herd of highland cattle live on our next door neighbours property, so i can play with them when i like!)

I am hoping of taking over my parents property and creating a sustainable hobby farm, however I will not be raising any cattle or sheep for our meals! I would love to have a fully sustainable vegetable and fruit garden, chooks for eggs, ducks for fertiliser and a couple alpaca to keep away the foxes!...and if my parents allowed me a mini pig, and a mini goat!

I am really looking forward to meeting you all, learning from your experiences and absorbing your wealth of knowledge.

See you around in the forums!

G'day to you. BYC has a large Aussie community and a great thread "Australia, six states and one funny little Island." Very nice to meet you Rowie, glad you joined the BYC flock. Don't know anything about ducks. But the "Other Backyard Poultry," forum has duck threads where you could post for information.
 
G'day, and welcome to BYC, Rochelle. Glad you decided join our flock. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Cheers.
