cheers, yep I've seen that one already.

I was interested to know about possible attacks from foxes and also about drowning, can they swim?

Always fancied some just checking out the suitability first Wink

You could the wallabies with chickens or something of that sort, so if fox attack do occur they wouldn't go for the wallabies. Not something i have ever done myself, and not sure if i ever would but i have seen it used. Although in that case they were with other birds and the enclosures were pretty well secured, guess it was just precautionary.

I'm not sure wallabies are great swimmers, only time i have seen them is in Zoo's are they all seem to have shallow ponds, but again just an assumption.

The major problem with them, are they can get out of fenceing that is not strong enough or deep enough.

As for where you can get them, in cage and avairy paper sometimes and on classifieds, i have seen a few places with them Smile
