Replied to the Livestock, where do you get yours?I ended up buying some lovely pullets from a man from Bairnsdale and also got a couple from Freecycle. I recently picked up two glorious geese from FrMay 09 - Replied to the Livestock, where do you get yours?I go to my local Longwarry chook man Ken....he is fanatical about his chooks, goats etc....they are so well looked after...try them./May 08
- Replied to the Livestock, where do you get yours?I don't recommend the Maffra poultry auction. Seems to always be a shed full of old roosters -- everyone turns up with utter rubbish, then when you puFeb 13
- It was in "Giffard" -- which is apparently near Longford, but I didn't find it. Do you ever go to poultry aunctions/sales near you? Maffra was VERY disappointing today . I'm not bothering there againFeb 12

I have found that the guy in Longwarry is fantastic, he mixes his own grain mix and to be on a personal note, a real sweetie as he is so passionate about his poultry! If you want more info let me know.
Still my chooks are not laying. They are all looking so beautiful and healthy, I see no signs of an egg eater so it is very frustrating. I do have on chook still clucky but she is only dominating one nest so they can use the others. Other than the fun factor of chooks I sometimes think it is far easier and more cost effective to buy eggs. Grrr
We have a real boggy problem happening in our back yard and have installed a pump system (don't ask me how it works) that pumps out extra water and puts it elsewhere. The yard was drying up but the pump packed it in so while it is getting fixed the water has really started to build up again. I am so glad we don't have Christmas at our house this year or the kids would be slip sliding all about the mud for the fun of it.
