While this highlights some common plant toxins , it is by no means comprehensive

Before allowing your pet to have unsupervised access to all areas of your home, we recommend doing some research. Familiarise yourself with the potential toxins present around your home and garden.

If your pet happens to ingest any toxins please call the clinic immediately for advice.

Do not induce vomiting at home.

If recommended please bring your pet to the clinic as soon as possible.

Lots more about in my town.

Plovers are on Patrol!
You may have noticed that plovers are more visible at the moment and are vocal in protecting their nests. As they go about this seasonal pattern it is important to know how to help keep them safe, as well as us when they swoop!
Learn what to do when plovers settle nearby and how we can peacefully co-exist with them. 🐣

Welcome to Purple Tree Pets & Poultry.

We are a small suburban farm in the Shoalhaven, which is part of the NSW South Coast, Australia. We have an amazing opportunity where we live in being able to experience both a beach and rural lifestyle.

We care for and breed beautiful and rare Buff Orpington Ducks. They are an attractive breed of waterfowl and are considered to be a threatened species of duck.

Orpington ducks will be sure to entertain you as they happily forage in the garden and splash around in their provided water source.

We also have some lovely chickens including Silkies, and our free range rainbow layers which include Araucanas, Marans, olive and easter eggers. We will have fertile eggs available to purchase from our online store.

Our other pets include our two dogs, a munchkin cat, guinea pigs, axolotls and goldfish.

I am currently studying to become a vet nurse and also volunteer as a member of Wildlife Rescue South Coast.

On my blog I will be sharing articles related to pet care, poultry, veterinary nursing and wildlife rescue.

I also have a background in graphic design and other creative ventures. You may see in the future some pet related items listed for sale in our online store which I have personally designed and created myself.

Our New Name -

Purple Tree Pets & Poultry was previously known as Going Quackers. We’ve had a name change in 2024 to incorporate some of our other pet related ventures into the one website. The name was inspired by the giant jacaranda trees that hang over our barn and provide shelter to wildlife.

While Jacarandas are not native to Australia, they have become naturalised in many parts of the country and are a common sight in many parks, gardens and streets.

In Australia, Jacaranda trees typically bloom in late spring to early summer. Our Jacaranda trees usually flower around the same time that our poultry is in the prime of their breeding season. It is the most exciting time of year on our farm when everything comes alive and our chickens and ducks are laying consistently.

However, it is not long before the flowers have all dropped off and there is a blanket of purple covering the ground. Then the cycle starts again…

First duck eggs of the season. The bloom is so waxy. Did you know they are like this to help protect the eggs from water. 🦆🥚

If I was to be a chicken I'd want to be a silkie so I had someone warm and fluffy to snuggle up to at night.

Some of my favourite eggs laid by our ladies today. We have a new dark olive egg layer too. I always love the bloomy and speckled eggs. It's always exciting waiting to see what your point of lay Easter Eggers will lay at this time of year. 🥚💚🤎
