Spring 2006 ~ It is a worrying time for poultry and waterfowl keepers with Avian Influenza [Bird flu] on everyones mind. Its vital not to panic but equally important to be prepared in case of a local outbreak.
If you are starting out or need to adapt take a look at our housing solutions . Spring is a great time to expand your flocks Incubating your own is so much fun.
The winter weather can take its toll and we are being encouraged to feed indoors now Maybe you need to replace some equipment.
Hunger can bring out the predators - check out our fencing to protect your precious birds.
There are still long evenings to catch up on your homework with books and videos , snuggled up to handmade cushions
Most of all enjoy your birds and other animals - its a great hobby and we send you our best wishes for 2006. [underlined words are links to more information]
