Autumn 2007 : Its been a pretty soggy time for some of us this summer, here's hoping for a mellow autumn watching your youngstock grow up, preparing for the winter. New housing may be in order, especially for new birds joining your flock.
With extra mouths to feed maybe you need to add some equipment. Protect your precious new birds with our Electric netting. As the nights draw in, curl up with a new book or video .
Most of all enjoy your birds and other animals - its a great hobby
Here at Kintaline Plant and Poultry Centre we have very full days with our birds and plants outside, students, guests and customers visiting the farm.
Please email with your daytime and evening telephone numbers if you are having difficulties getting hold of us by phone. We will return your call as soon as we can.
Bird flu Suffolk / Norfolk Nov 2007 - H5N1 - Clearly this situation is serious and will result in domestic poultry keepers having to keep their birds shut in, within the Restricted zones,for an unknown period of time. For the most up to date information keep looking at the DEFRA website If you are needing an urgent delivery of equipment or housing or covered runs please phone or email Jill. We will do our very best to help you. Some ideas to keep your birds safe at this time are here : Avian Influenza [Bird flu]
