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
Here is the link to the Avian Influenza webinar on hosted by Runnymede Farm supported by Perth NRM and Regen WA. I haven't watched it yet, but given this is a LOOONG webinar I think it would be pretty thorough. So grab a cuppa and put your feet up...

From the Youtube summary -

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.

AVIAN INFLUENZA OUTBREAK - MAY 2024

As we all found out last week, Avian Influenza has been found at two separate egg farms near Meredith and Terang (VIC).
Diagnostic testing at CSIRO’s Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness at Geelong has confirmed H7N3 high pathogenic avian influenza. This is the strain that was found back in 2020 around the same area.

The strain of the virus detected near Meredith is different from the H5 avian influenza strain that's impacting the USA and other parts of the world.
The property has been placed into quarantine and Ag. Vic staff are doing what they can to support the affected businesses. They have also implemented movement controls around the infected premises. Please note the areas on the attached map.

Poultry farmers, backyard flock and bird owners are urged to report any cases of unexplained bird deaths to the 24-hour Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888, or your local vet.
