Just wondering - anyone here had an encounter with Marek's disease? Does it occur in the NZ poultry population or not?

Hi there have just found your group. i have 15+ chooks on our suburban property in Trentham. Upper Hutt. Mostly big breeds and a mix of types. We have 4 eggs a day from them at the moment due to the time of year. My kids have special birds each that have shown at our annual poultry show this year, so did i and we all took home prizes. Fun!

hello Lesley, re your message to the group about introducing new chickens, in my limited experience any new chickens introduced into an established group will upset the pecking order for a while and there will most likely be some fighting but they get over it eventually

I need to choose between 2 roosters soon, I have a barnevelder and a brown leghorn, both have yet to crow and not aggressive with each other yet, but which one?

Hi Everyone i am now selling my Poultry Health Tonic and Natural Wormer which is what I feed to my hens to keep them healthy, the eggs strong and the hens free of worms. You can feed ad lib or sprinkle over their daily grain. As it is completly natural there is no withholding time for the eggs. It is on my Green Shopping page @ www.greenurbanliving.co.nz
