I feed my geese and ducks flock raiser, but does anyone know if it's ok to give them horse feed? Sometimes we can't get to tractor supply in the winter and the closest feed store sells horse feed. Is that ok for them?

Will Coturnix quail give geese and ducks diseases? I have a few Coturnix and I'd like to keep them in the barn with my ducks and geese during the winter. The quail are in rabbit type cages off the ground...the geese and ducks would be beside them, but not directly under them.

Can baby quail that have just hatched eat Flock Raiser?

On Metzer Farm's website, it says at about 18 weeks ducks will not have pin feathers and it'll be easier to pluck...

I hatched two baby ducks, from wowsa farm, and I don't know what color the one on the right is. It has a khaki -ish color on her bottom, and her legs almost greenish looking markings. The owner of wowsa farm said that it may be pied, but I can't find a picture of a pied ancona to compare it to.

I live on a small farm, in West Virginia, and I'm very pleased with the quality of waterfowl Metzer Farms provides. I've purchased several geese from Metzer and they are all very healthy. I had a small issue with one shipment, and I received replacement goslings quickly. The customer service is...

More goslings from Metzer! They all arrived in perfect health. Except one of the white Chinese goslings is aggressive and biting the other gosling's wings! There was blood everywhere when I opened the box. Has anyone else had that happen? I've never seen anything like it! The aggressive one has...

Hi, I live near Winfield, W.Va. Do have any male ducks available? I have one blue pair of Anconas, and my duck just hatched eight babies, and now I'll need a new male for the females I keep....Thanks!

I live in West Virginia, and even though there are other hatcheries closer, I always order geese from Metzer. Last year, I placed an order and all of them arrived in perfect shape. This year, I had to mail my order to a post office in Ohio (because Metzer cannot ship to W.Va. anymore), and we...

Here are pics of the Ancona ducklings that my duck hatched ( I only have one female and a male, that are a little over one yrs old). The ducklings are about two weeks old now. The larger gray birds are Embden goslings from Metzer Farm.

My Ancona duck hatched 8 babies! And she was only one year old. I am so happy : )

How do I get the humidity to be higher than 45%? I have a small Tupperware bowl with a sponge in my incubator. What else could I use to increase the humidity for hatching?

I have two Super African geese from Metzer Farm.

I live in Putnam County, W.Va too!

My geese from Metzer arrived! They are all healthy and drinking their sugar water. I live in Charleston, W.Va. and I was worried about the long trip for the geese but they all seem fine. They were a little late - I expected them at 8 am and I received them at 10 am (and it was nerve wracking...

I have had such a great experience purchasing my Croad Langshan ( a blue rooster and some chicks) from this breeder - she is super helpful! She has chicks and hatching eggs: Croad Langshan, Blue/Blue Wheaten Ameraucana, & Golden Pheasant and Peafowl eggs. Also, she has English Chocolate...

I'm from Charleston, W.Va.

Thank you for the warm welcome! They are beautiful birds. I had never heard of them either and then I discovered Feather Hill Rare and Fancy Fowl on Facebook. She is very helpful and suggested I get this breed because they are so friendly.

Hello! I am new to raising chickens. I just purchased a few Croad Langshan and I love them!
