  4. Not anymore, hence the resembalance of a golf green that our backyard now has! The brown bugger was under a hollowed out sleeper that was used as edging for a garden bed near the back door. We removed everything in the backyard with only the mature trees remaining. We're going to try the sump oil around the boundary fences. Not sure if I'm being paranoid or not but a few times our guniea fowl have looked in the direction of the neighbouring paddock, ran up to the fence and scream their heads off so maybe they could have seen a snake?
  5. We moved to small acreage late last year (and back onto farms & channel) and the former owners were greenies - leaf litter 2-3ft deep under the back stand of trees. Shrubs and groundcovers covering most of the back yard and all of the front yard. Sleepers used as edging and huge rocks strewn about everywhere plus a salt water pool ;) Unfortunately our first priority was to get boundary fencing up as the ppty had no fencing We then had to use a bobcat to remove the leaf litter. We then removed all the sleepers and much to our horror found a hybernating young brown snake under a sleeper 3mtrs from our back door (where the dog yard also is). After this scary find we used the bobcat to clear all the shrubs and groundcover - backyard now resembles a golf green, Lol. We are now the owners of 5 guniea fowl. The guniea's are amazing, my mass murderer cat (who spends most of his time inside) thought he's take one on and try knocking it off. The cornered one let off an alarm and the whole flock surrounded the cat each taking turns in pecking him - needless to say I rescued him. We kept our gunieas locked up in their pen for 6 weeks and then let them have run of the few acres which we have fenced. Our fences are only 5ft and they choose to stay in our ppty which is good! Since clearing the back yard and getting the guniea fowl we have not seen one snake - even when the neighbouring farmer cut his hay! Our next goal for this year is to put clear, solid fencing around the pool but at over $6000 it's not likely to get done until winter. I have heard that sump oil around your boundary fences is meant to deter snakes.
  6. Does anyone have their numbers for CHKC? I have my numbers for the Lancefield KC shows.
  7. So are the working BC's we see at trials like the ones bred by Greg Prince and the like ISDS registered or are they from a different registery?
  8. Agreed. In our council our local laws define "dangerous dog" to include rushing up to another dog or person. I would have reported you to the council too as the dog was rushing and IMO not under effective control.

  14. There's a fair bit of water on the roads between Shepp and Yarrawonga, that's via the Katamatite Rd. Don't know what it's like going via Numurkah up the GV Hwy.
  15. Just checked ABC Riverina & Hume's to close at 11am from Yass to Albury
  16. Does anyone have a link to road closures in NSW? Our local radio just announced that the Hume Hwy is closed (near Tarcutta I think) and that traffic is being diverted
  17. I don't think I'll be going - I'm in Shepparton and it's absolutly pi#*ing down here, streets flooded, gutters backing up - can't even hear the phones ring at work And apparently the worst is still meant to come!
  18. I thought she DID cross Border Collie with Aussie Shepherd and was selling them for $350 on Gumtree?
  19. Stupid question but is this show outdoors?
