Chickens have some pretty clever ways of beating the winter chill, but they may still need your help. Like all birds, chickens use their feathers for insulation by fluffing them up and trapping the air. But for the times when nature is hard to predict, good pet care involves providing appropriate refuge.

❄️Insulation❄️
In cold parts of Australia, you could insulate your chicken coop with tree branches, cardboard, or straw. Care should be taken if hay or straw is used for insulation, as these can become infested with mold and vermin and carry chicken parasites. Also, remember to keep the insulation tidy. Keeping the coop clean and dry is essential as most bacteria, fungi, and parasites thrive in warm, moist environments.

☀️Warmer climates☀️
If you live in one of the warmer Australian states then you probably won’t need to install insulation in your chicken coop at all. Open, ventilated coops are more important. Learn more tips on coop setup on our website, or alternatively, visit your local Greencross Vets for expert advice.

Meet our Superstar Strathalbyn vet team

(From left to right Dr Emily Bull, Dr Ross Lockwood and Dr Sarah Clark)

Dr Emily Bull is our Veterinary Director and started with us at the end of 2023. Dr Emily has over 14 years of experience with both small and large animals. Emily has worked in some of the most remote places around Australia, bringing with her an immense amount of knowledge. Emily has a special interest in all thing’s surgery and integrative health.

The newest addition to our team is Dr Sarah Clark. Sarah graduated from James Cook University in Townsville. Sarah is loving finally being able to put all of her years of study into practice and has quickly become an integral part of the team as our new graduate vet. Sarah’s special interests include behavioural medicine and large animals.

Now this Dr needs no introduction (unless you and your pets are new to the Greencross family), Dr Ross Lockwood. Ross was the original owner of our practice here in Strathalbyn and stayed on with us once the practice was sold to the Greencross family. Ross comes with a wealth of knowledge with just about everything – whether it be small or large animals and you’ll still find him consulting or guiding our younger generation of vets and nurses in surgery.

Winter is here! We feel it's going to be a super cold one, and chances are if you are feeling cold your furry friend is too.

Here are some ways to keep your pet warm in the Winter:

💚Keep your pet inside
💚Provide a warm, soft, elevated bed
💚Warm coats are great for pets that are senior, small or have thin coats
💚Move your guinea pigs hutch inside the house or garage
💚Provide extra straw and hay so small pets can burrow and hide
💚Keep all bedding dry
💚Wrap a loose blanket over your pet, but don’t tuck them in. They still need to be able to move away from it if they overheat
💚Walk your furry friend during the day when it’s not as cold

🚨 Attention Pet Owners! 🚨

Emergency and Specialty Vets are sounding the alarm about the rise in paralysis ticks affecting our pets. 🐾 With the unseasonal warmth lingering into autumn and rain, the conditions are ripe for these dangerous pests.
At Animal Referral Hospital (ARH) Gosford, several beloved pets have tragically lost their lives due to severe tick paralysis. Dr. Natashia Evans, an Emergency and Critical Care Specialist at ARH Gosford, emphasises the importance of year-round parasite prevention, even as we transition into winter.

Skipping prevention can lead to devastating consequences.
Even a delay of just one or two days can put your pet at risk. Set reminders, and if in doubt, administer prevention a couple of days early.

Pet owners are urged to perform daily tick checks, as early detection can save lives.

For emergency assistance, contact your nearest animal hospital: https://www.emergencyvet.com.au/contact-us.html
