Özet: ingestion of Senecio sceleratus. The uniqueness of this case was re-enforced by the farmer allowing his birds to roam about free-range in paddocks that were particularly grassy. Unfortunately he had not properly managed the surrounding veldt and allowed ragwort to spread into the paddocks. Annual veldt fires had encouraged the growth and encroachment of the weed in the locality. Clearly measures should be introduced to control its spread by mowing and slashing it as soon as it appears. The farmer should also ensure that sufficient quantities of supplementary feed are provided to discourage the birds from nibbling at the ragwort
