Thank you all for sharing this. I just bought a Chinese Male to go with my female geese. He is still in the pen only because we just bought him on Sunday. We are planning on letting him out and see how he does. I have a 5 yr. old grandson and I don't want them attaching him like my husband's RIR...

You all are funny. Had my laugh today. Nice to hear a little humor for a change. I have quail but my husband has them behind the barn and they don't get much sun and they are in mud. I have 12 all together and they make the coolest sound. I hate to eat any of them. They have laid eggs and then...

I have Pekin ducks, Call ducks and Chocolate Indian Runners. Right now they are free to swim on the pond and go where they want to. My husband will be separating the Call Ducks and Indian Runners sometime at the end of January to breed. I was told they won't breed until February but they are...

Thanks everyone.

I guess I just reply to myself to ask my question. I have Pekin ducks, Call ducks and Chocolate Indian Runners. Right now they are free to swim on the pond and go where they want to. My husband will be separating the Call Ducks and Indian Runners sometime at the end of January to breed. I was...

We have ducks and chickens. My husband started out with chickens years ago. He has Rhode Island Red and two other breeds. Have to get back to you on what they are called. I just recently started with ducks last year. Hope it is ok to talk about ducks because I have a few questions.
