This morning we found one of our Silkie Mums had a chick who was struggling with wry neck.

So now we are giving the baby multivitamins with a syringe and having to take turns to keep her warm...

She's doing really well. Can almost keep her own head up...

If you've seen a good rooster looking after his hens, it's not hard to see how they are a wonderful addition any flock. However, there are a minority of aggressive roosters who can potentially do a lot of harm to their Human owners, as you can see from the images below.
This blog discusses how best to change this behaviour and keep your family safe.

Ok, Group Members! We need your help!

This person is a scammer who is using the name of a *very* well known and respected Poultry Person to sell Silver Laced Wyandottes from unsuspecting chicken lovers. 😡

Please go to the original page and report it to Facebook as a scam website.

Thanks 🐔🐓

Ooooooooh. Another customer who will be singing the praises of Exzolt soon enough ❤️🐓🐔

Hoping this is the game changer I need. Unfortunately silkies are so susceptible to mites and they suffer to disease more easily than other breeds 😔
Good time of year to test this product out. Yes it's a bit more money but so are our silkies. Great company to deal with too.

OMG... The egg pile is getting out of control. 😳

I think the neighbours will get another lot and I have to sell some. I've always wanted to water glass some eggs as I haven't done it before so I think I might have enough to do that too?! 🤔🤣

What does your egg stash look like?

Welcome to Nugget, the latest addition to the Aussie Chook Supplies feathered family!!! 😍😍😍

She is a stunning Silver-laced Brahma who was picked up by Mr. ACS in the dead of night. After a few indignant "bocks" she was left to free range on the back yard to settle in.

Two hours later she was found in the chicken run with her new sisters, just chilling like she's always been there.
Isn't she stunning? ❤️🐔

AVIAN INFLUENZA INFORMATION WEBINAR

Hosted by Blythe Calnan and featuring Dr Kim Nairn and Bernard Egan. With plenty of discussion, interest and concern regarding AI outbreak in Victoria this webinar has been organised to connect pastured poultry producers with information regarding the current outbreak, the nature of the virus and the likelihood and consequences of an outbreak in WA.

The goal of this webinar is to create networks, develop pathways to information that builds confidence in making decisions and enable professional management to protect and maintain pastured poultry flocks.

The session includes a 1 hour presentation from Dr Kim Nairn from Portec Veterinary services, Western Australia’s leading veterinary Avian specialist and a long time supporter of pastured poultry enterprises, followed by 45 minutes of questions.
Bernard Egan from CEPA presents on the best way to stay up to date with information regarding the outbreak and developing situation.

The discussion from this webinar will help determine what further support the pastured egg industry needs during this time and to prepare us better for future challenges. This webinar was supported by the Perth NRM Sustainable Agriculture Facilitator (SAF). The Sustainable Agriculture Facilitator position is funded and supported by the Australian Government as part of the Climate-Smart Agriculture Program (CSAP) under the Natural Heritage Trust.

Second Avian Influenza outbreak has been found in a Canberra backyard flock, directly linked to Canberra Commercial Egg Farm outbreak.

This would be so distressing for the family as their flock would have culled to stop the spread.

Please set up as many of the precautionary steps recommended by Agriculture Victoria to keep your flock safe. This is why blocking wild birds from your coop/run setup is VERY important.
