Veterinary Student in search of Christmas Pig or Poultry Placement

[maggiefaecke]

Hello, my name is Maggie and I am in my first year at the Royal Veterinary College. I was looking to get ahead of my placements by completing a poultry or swine placement this Christmas. Requirements from my course are as follows: 4000 broilers, 2500 caged layers, 1000 free range hens, 1500 turkeys, and 40 breeding sows. These placements are so I can learn and appreciate the animal husbandry involved on farms that produce the worlds food supply. I am very excited to work in a placement like this as I have much to learn. I am a hard worker and am willing to help out in even the smallest of daily tasks. As I am a student currently based in London, accommodation information would be appreciated if possible. Please let me know if you have had placements before and are willing to help another or if you have any information about possible ones. Thank you so much.

Hi. You could try Rattlerow pigs at Stradbrooke they might be able to offer a position and accommodation
