Animals currently kept on the property, plus their care instructions. # Aviary birds ## Salem //Rescue crow, Australian native// Her diet, as per vet recommendations, should be 50% dog food, 25% insectivore mix and 25% fruit, vegetable and salad mix ### Instructions - Salem's personal water bowl must always be full and clean. This should be checked daily, at a minimum - Larger water trough in the aviary should be filled to half (if it is full of algae, please drain and refill) - Salem's personal dog food bowl (the one that hooks over the cage from the wire bent around it) must always be filled with dog food (in big screw-top blue-lid plastic bin on cottage veranda) - Salem's personal omnivore mix bowl should be cleaned and fresh food added daily. It should contain: -- insectivore mix, made up into very small solid balls (Wombaroo container inside the cottage, made up with water as per instructions, start with less water than you think you need) -- misc vegetables including tomatoes and berries. If giving hard vegetables, they should be cooked to be soft -- salad greens - The bath should contain clean water for her to swim in, not too deep ## Chickens //@Sienna's three introduced chickens// Chickens should always have access to water and general chicken feed, ideally supplemented with some calcium such as shell. Please always put the food in the iron containers and the water in the stainless containers, as putting water in the iron receptacles can cause iron-oxidising bacteria to flourish. Their food is in the metal bin on the veranda. It should be soaked overnight to activate, so put the next lot on to soak when feeding them the current lot. Give them food scraps and compost as much as possible :)

# Rules on Animals and Animal Husbandry Please do not bring animals to the Sanctuary without prior agreement. Existing pets //may// come with new residents, if they are properly cared for / fenced as appropriate (see below) and agreed upon with consensus on a case-by-case basis :) # Compliance with Moreton Bay Regional Council local laws Firestone Sanctuary also needs to comply with local council laws in regards to animals being kept on the property, including [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Allowances | allowances for overall numbers of each type of animal ]]. Moreton Bay Regional Council requires, under [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Reports-Policies/Local-Laws/Local-Law-2 | Local Law 2 ]]: - [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Cats | cats ]] and [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Dogs | dogs ]] need to be [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Registration | registered with council ]]. The owner of an animal will be responsible for this cost. - "Dogs and cats must wear the tag supplied by the local government". - "all domestic animals, including [[ https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Cats | cats ]], be kept on their own property and prevented from wandering or escaping", including creating a proper enclosure. Local Law 2 states: "A person who keeps an animal must maintain a proper enclosure to prevent the animal from wandering or escaping from the person’s land". - [[https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Ownership#multiAccordionBody5|Proper standards for keeping an animal]] must be met. The council does systematic inspections to check properties for signs of animals being kept. It is the responsibility of land owners to control [[https://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/Services/Animals/Pest-animals|restricted invasive species]] on their land generally. Note that cats and dogs are considered restricted invasive species by council. # Resident space Because Firestone Sanctuary itself does not have adequate fencing covering all boundaries (and never will, for it would prevent free passage of native animals), a particular resident's personal residential space is treated as their responsibility for the interpretation of the MBRC laws above. That means that a domestic animal must not leave the defined boundary space of the resident unless it is - actively monitored (e.g. on a leash) by the owner - in a shared space that residents have, by consensus, agreed can be an animal space and has the appropriate fencing or enclosure. For all intents and purposes, the shared space of the Sanctuary should be treated the same as public land in terms of animal permissions.
