Hi Wayne,
And a Merry Xmas to you and your family,
It sounds like you love animals and birds like me. You are so lucky to have the room to keep all your animals. My son would love to own his own steer. He loves cows and pigs. I hope you will enjoy the site as much as me.

thanks guys for the friendly welcome!! i will get some pics organised and post them. we are only on 3 acres though. the oldies arn't to bad, they understand the passion involved. we also feed wild native parrots as well - weve had up to 3prs of rosellas, 2pr of crimson wings with babies and 36 king parrots at one time. WOW - yes! but they come in dribs and drabs at the moment. + galahs and cockatoos in big numbers. these are all wild and will stay wild!! they way i like them.

cheers wayne....
