Hi there, today a young paradise duck descended amongst my chickens, to my surprise he is extremely tame, i can touch him! he has definitely been hand reared, trouble is I made the mistake of feeding him and he is charging at my chickens when they try to eat their food. Any idease? I would like to k...

roos by the mile here too! - high ratio of them especially Mnorcas and Anconas - !!

just about all my chickens are moulting now - pekins, wyandottes especially

We use a fold up trout net from sports world - works a treat!

highly recomend the eco lights from Brinsea, well worth it - made my season a trouble free one - best investment ever, I'm going to get two more for next season.

we use pestene mixed to a paste with a little diesel, works a treat - takes a few weeks for everything to drop off, but never got it back, not did it seem to cause the chicken any discomfort.

Hi there, does anyone know of a breeder that would be prepared to sell me some eggs from a really good line of these, or, alternatively if there is anyone in the south island with nice ones they would be prepared to sell?

Hi everyone, I have bred 36 gold Sebrights this season from just 2 pullets, this new line appears to be very hardy, and also nice mulberry combs, If anyone wants some I have plenty for sale $15 each.

I have Minorcas here at approx the same age, she looks identical to mine.

well that's a novel way of dealing with it!

very interesting! I might try tne silver spangled hen over the gold pencilled rooster next season - just for something to do and see what pops out

Does anyone know of any of these in NZ? If not, does anyone know how to possibly create them please? I only have gold spangld, silver spangled and gold pencilled varieties.

Does anyone know if there are any of these around in the South Island? Not necessarily from a show person, but nice quality Black Wyandottes.
