But... recently I ordered Pekin ducks from a hatchery here in the U.S. out of the six that survived the trip (its a long story so please dont ask) two of them have lite pinkish bills. And two also have crest on their heads, so my opinion is...

    Neighbors Found Duck

    Totally understand the cuteness thing, she is awfully cute. I've already mentioned to the Frau that maybe we'll phase out our Muscovey Ducks and get a few Call Ducks. What I don't get is why people think their worth $75.00 a pair. Their kind of like the Dewlap Geese folks were wanting $125.00+...

    Neighbors Found Duck

    Thanks everyone after some research that's what I was thinking also a Magpie Call Duck. I was thinking about two months old but most of you are saying 3 months to adult age. I appreciate the help, now to wait and see if anyone come looking for their pet. I'm guessing it's a hen, still...

    Neighbors Found Duck

    Hello everyone, it's been awhile since I've posted on here, but I'm back. My neighbors discovered a duckling in their yard and assumed it was one of mine. But it's not, and I'm not sure what breed this little one is. Can anyone help and throw some suggestions my way. Thanks.

    Help with ID and Gender

    By NO MEANS am I say the man you got the black one from doesn't know what he has, but Jersey Giants & RR neither have black legs. Not saying it's not possible to get them when crossed but in my opinion getting a blacked legged chick from two parents who don't have them is very low odds. That...

    Help with ID and Gender

    I agree with Barnhartchickens2 the second one does resemble some sort of wyandotte the stripes kind of point that direction. Don't ya hate that you get something and don't know what it is, just recently I ordered some turkeys and along with them the hatchery sent 8 little yellowish-orange...

    Can you keep a lone turkey hen with chickens?

    OK, My plan is to cut the chicken run in half. Right now they have (approx) 32x72 (2304sf) giving each about 1150 sf in space. It has 6ft ceilings with some areas going up to about 15 feet. Once the Turks are larger I intend to allow them access to the yard which is only about 1/2 acre with a...

    Can you keep a lone turkey hen with chickens?

    OK so I was thinking of allowing my turkeys to share a coop with my chickens, but from this post my seeing it's not really a good idea.

    Turkey hen acting lethargic

    I'm no expert on these matters but, it maybe something as simple as shes not getting a nutrient she's needing especially if shes starting to lay. The turks i had years ago started to act different and it turned out to be just that. To this day still don't know what it was they were not getting...

    Easter Egger club!

    Hello everyone, I haven't been here for ages, but the reason I'm writing is... if anyone recalls about a year ago or so I had written that I thought my EE quit laying, well she definitely quit laying her normal green eggs but I was 55% sure she was still laying some brown eggs instead, and I...

    Is anyone else having issues with the USPS and dead chicks?

    OK I've read this twice to ensure I wasn't missing something!! But the fact remains that FED-EX, USPS, & UPS when animals are shipped HUMAN ISSUES are abundant, usually meaning lose of life to the young livestock WE as customers paid for. Is it the FED-Ex, USPS or UPS organizations that pay...

    Is anyone else having issues with the USPS and dead chicks?

    Yes, any of the postal services anymore dont care what is being shipped. To them it's nothing more then a BOX. Unless of course it's considered some kind of hazard or explosive, than there's all kinds of rules and regs they have to follow or they will be fined into bankrupcy. I also had the...

    Hey TxCarl seeing your name I'll guess your from Texas. I've been interested in getting Muscovy ducks myself, I live just outside Ft Worth. Then I discovered that there's all these restrictions to own them. I've been trying to find out what they are but the only info so far is what I've read...
