Got some extra time on your hands? Love hanging out with your feathered friends? Or maybe you’re looking at selling some birds soon? Here’s your guide to taking the ultimate poultry picture so you can impress your friends and showcase your fowl!
So you’ve decided to become a chicken parent… congratulations! If you want to prevent parasites, predators and disease in your backyard beauties, take a look at how best to design your poultry pen! All chicken breeds have been bred from a few wild fowl, one of which is the Red Jungle Fowl (Gallus gallus).

What can this tell us about our cage setup?
Over the past few weeks, there is a massive influx in the amount of people wanting backyard chooks. If you have been considering chickens, why not look into rare breeds. Rare breeds add a bit of colour and spunk to your backyard flock and often have characteristics that make them well sited to extreme climates.
