Hi
My sister has chooks that are kept in the cage with other birds I think they are cockateils and budgies and finches with not problems. I also have chooks but they are kept with ducks, a Chinese golden pheasant & Guinea fowl with no problems but these are all let out each day to free range.

Hi,
I only discovered this when some friends who were saving me cartons brought these 10 egg cartons to me so when I use them to sell eggs I am very particular to point out to the buyer that there are only 10 eggs and the price is lower accordingly.

I Had a look just out of interest it did not take too long to down load and is very quick and simple it makes understanding contours a lot easier if you are having problems in understanding this concept a way to develop the teaching further would be to then show these contours just as they would appear on a normal map.
