DDU can I ask you about your chooks? You do have chooks don't you?
Roughly what sort of cage do you have i.e. wooden? How many chooks & what/how much do you feed them? I searched chook houses on ebay, do you suggest a good one?


Klarry what is needed to fox proof a chook house? We were thinking wire underneath and perhaps sleepers too? Are snakes & rats a problem?


Any information would be good ๐Ÿ™‚

lol I wouldn't mind a rooster, we've got no immediate neighbours.

Laws must've changed over the years because growing up, our next door neighbours in suburbia had a rooster.

We also had a incinerator can't do that anymore.


Clair, did you incinerate the neighbour's roosters?

:O

HEY DDU!!

We went to see a crazy chook man!
He was great gave us so much info, he said by the sounds of it our little white one is a hen, he will have to see the duck to tell us what breed & sex. He had ducks, chooks, turkeys everything. We got two more and might go back for a rooster.

Rofl .. I think the first one is a "hiline" (although it looks like an Isa from here) and I think that the second is a Frizzle rather than a Polish as polish have flat feathers and puffy feathers on their head.

The while one looks like a hen and it looks like a Jap, although i'm not to sure on that one as there are a few breeds taht look like that. Is it young or a bantam?

I want frizzles ...

Many of those chicks pictured have died ๐Ÿ˜ž I have 14 left.

I also have a duck, but it's not pretty and white like that .. watch them as they run away ...

Don't know, he said Polish and one did have puffy feathers on her head but we chose that one.

It's young

No just got them today he said they were just starting to lay, he had heaps of everything on his property

And I'm not sure about the duck he said if I bring it to him he can tell me what breed & sex also to make sure it's been vaccinated & de flea'd
