Saturday, 26 May, 9-11 am – Keeping Healthy Backyard Chooks With Kirstie Henning

20/04/2018 By

Keeping chickens in your backyard can be simple and enjoyable if done correctly. If you plan to own chickens, or already have chickens, this workshop will give you in-depth information on housing, fencing, diet and general health maintenance. Kirstie Henning is a qualified holistic Animal Nutritionist. She has successfully bred a large range of purebred heritage breeds including a range of exotic breeds of bantam chickens at her acreage property in North Arm near Yandina. Whether you are a beginner, or already own chickens, you will learn lots of tips and tricks for keeping poultry including natural alternatives. Bring along your questions on the day as it is an interactive workshop. To book click here

​Tea & coffee will be served after the event, please bring your own mug as YCG strives to host waste free workshops. Also note the workshops are all weather events (rain or shine).
