We purchased eggs from a very good breeder and hatched several over summer. Sadly, out of 11 eggs, we have 8 roosters which has been a disappointment.

These are handsome young roosters and will grow into large strong birds. They have a lovely nature. Have been eating out of our hand. We keep roosters to keep the hawks away from our hens. I am selling for $10 each as I want them to have a home and not be eaten please. Look forward to someone wanting one or two. Thanks.
Has anyone any idea where I could hire/borrow a Geiger counter from please? I only need it for 2 mins to check if something is radio active. Not the normal sort of thing we all tend to have but maybe someone knows a company that has one???? Thanks

Earlier this year, an application for $2.2 million to assess the viability of a plan to move the entire township 10km away to Lake Mapourika was rejected by the Provincial Growth Fund.
Franz Josef has 330 ratepayers who live locally - but as a tourist hotspot with at least 600,000 visitors a year, it brings in an estimated $350m a year in tourism revenue.
