Wanted used roofing screws/nails, screws, corrugated iron and other building materials
I am looking for any unwanted second hand building materials to build extra housing for my rescued ducks, and for the domestic egg laying ducks who's eggs support the rescued ducks.
The following sorts of things would be useful if you have any you don't want:
Screws especially self tapping square or phillips type 32mm or longer used is fine as long as they can be reused
Roofing nails or screws
Plywood, corrugated iron, old doors or old windows in wooden frames
Metal brackets, braces supports, flat/straight or corner etc to join or brace wooden sections
Wire netting or fencing wire
Polythene clear plastic
Waratahs all lengths
Staples or brads 18 guage for a staplegun unused.
Any other items that might be useful to build a duck house
Also if anyone has an old automatic washing machine they no longer need, it would be outdoors used to wash towels and other linen used for ducklings, so wouldn't matter if it had like small leaks etc as long as all functions (wash, spin, drain water) worked.
And if anyone has any duck weed in their streams or pond, or reeds/Bullrushes or flaxes /grasses they don't want, to plant round my duck pond. Or unwanted artificial grass...
If you can help with any of the above please text 020 406 41485

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
