OUTSIDE USA & CANADA DELIVERY - SPIKE 2025 CALENDAR *URGENT FUNDRAISER*

£19.99 GBP
All profits from this calendar go towards purchasing a desperately needed enclosure for Spike and his 34 'flockmates' as we try to protect them from the current outbreak of Avian Flu in southeast England. 

More info:

As of 2024, the UK Animal and Plant Health Agency has given notice of an upcoming mandatory order for all birdkeepers located in affected areas to follow strict biosecurity and housing measures.

These measures include, among other stipulations, the need for Spike and his flock to be housed in an enclosure at all times from December 23rd, 2024.

Previous Avian Flu outbreaks have placed birds in lockdown for several months. It is devastating to know they won't be able to exhibit natural behaviour outdoors, but the risks are just too high.

If a single duck is suspected of having Avian Flu, the agency mentioned above can order the culling of ALL birds in the flock as a precautionary measure. 

But why can't the ducks continue living in the current enclosure? Good question! The current setup is suitable for overnighting the flock, keeping them safe from weather and foxes, but it is simply too small for this many birds to live in around the clock, for months on end. 

High winds have also destroyed it on several occasions. If this happens in the middle of lockdown, the ducks will be exposed to the open air and possibly infected by overflying wild birds, attacked by land predators and exposed to the elements. 

Your support in this fundraiser is hugely appreciated. It will help Leanne continue the wonderful, selfless work she does with these beautiful animals while also making a real difference in the fight against Avian Flu. 

Every calendar purchase automatically enters you in a draw for a selection of prizes, which will be announced in the coming days. 

Thank you for your support!

Lots of love,

Riyadh, Leanne & Spike x
