Hi there, @Birdland80, as you may have guessed from the name, I'm not an Aussie. However, like most Kiwis, I have a handful of Aussie cousins, and I've crossed the ditch a couple of times.

I keep Muscovy ducks, and I am currently enjoying their very first eggs. I have kept chickens in the past and am considering getting more. Like you, I enjoy gardening.

Welcome to BYC!
