THE MOOKEE What can I say about the Mookee
that has not already been said? Probably very little but maybe I can put
the breed in a different perspective, from both the British and the European
points of view. And of course I can tell you from my own experience about
the endearing qualities of this lovely old breed. By : Mick Bassett (D) 10 pages - 900 kB

CHICKEN
RUN visiting Sjaak van der Salm, Westland (NL) There was no need to question if we were at the
right address… Each year Sjaak rears baby chickens
and ducklings in the extension at the front of his house. Quite often kids
come over and press their noses against the window to get a better look. Teachers
and students too gladly change their routine to go past Sjaak's place to admire the baby birds. By : Elly Vogelaar (NL) 12 pages - 1.4 MB

THE Sebastopol gEEsE Part 2. The Sebastopol Goose in Britain. Much that has been written, and generally accepted,
regarding the emergence of the Sebastopol Goose on to the ‘poultry
arena’, has been speculative or merely the repeated errors of previous
authors. It is hoped this summary will set the record straight. By :

CONCERNING POULTRY ~ probiotics ~ PROBIOTICS are a dietary supplement that increase
the population of the 'good' bacteria (micro flora), which are needed in
the intestinal tract in order to process food properly. The use of probiotics as a daily supplement has become a popular
routine in the commercial poultry industry. You too can use probiotics in your own flock of chickens, or your pigeons. By : K. J.

CHICKENS IN AFRICA My two elder daughters stayed in Africa, in various
countries, for more than a year and a half. They both took photos of poultry
because they know I am a fanatic poultry breeder. This opportunity has
been an additional reason for me also to look into African chicken breeds.
This article is a combination of my research - together with Elly Vogelaar - and the experiences
of my two daughters. By : Luuk Hans and Elly Vogelaar. 15 pages - 1.9 MB

YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING! The more I talk to people about pigeons, the more I
am learning the pigeon hobby is a secret hobby known mostly by those
who keep pigeons. The vast majority of the civilian population does
not know about our hobby. This can be for many reasons. Staying secret for
some, prevents anyone from knowing they have pigeons and minimizes their
having problems with the neighbors or other organizations. By : Bill
