Hi,
I'm not sure if this was posted (it was to the rec... hierarchy), but since
there are often questions about chickens, ducks, etc. posted here, I thought
I'd point out a new mailing list for domestic birds. Enclosed is the
announcement:
---------------------------------------------------------
DOM_BIRD@PLEARN.EDU.PL - For owners, breeders, and farmers of
domesticated birds DOM_BIRD is a new list for owners, breeders
and farmers of the wide variety of domesticated birds. This
list was created for the express purpose of discussing
anything from the nutritional requirements of your breeders,
to the shows and events held for displaying the many variety
of fancy breeds of domesticated birds. If you wish to discuss
equipment used for incubating eggs, the veterinary care and
management of adults or chicks, or find the best way to handle
any aspect of domesticated bird ownership, you are welcome to
join DOM_BIRD. In the future, DOM_BIRD may also serve as a
gateway to a newsgroup on domesticated birds, so that a wider
audience can be reached.
Domesticated birds can be classified as (but not limited to)
those birds that could possibly be found in a typical
farmyard. The following are some examples of domesticated
birds:
Peafowl Turkeys
Guinea Fowl Doves
Pheasants Emus
Quail Ostriches
Ducks Rheas
Geese
Chickens - commercial and fancy breeds
Pigeons - homing and fancy breeds
DOM_BIRD will NOT be a place for campaigning for the rights of
animals, debating the ethics of maintaining or hunting of
domesticated birds, discussing the pros and cons of
vegetarianism, or the swapping of recipes. This is, first and
foremost, a list for people who enjoy and prosper from a
relationship with domesticated birds.
In summary, anything that may be related to all types of
domesticated birds and/or human-domesticated bird interactions
may be posted here.
To subscribe to DOM_BIRD, send the following command to
