    Quote: Ducks are a hot commodity. Its not surprising to me that they sold quickly. Now that you have sold that many, the word is surely out and you will have a hard time keeping up. Im still interested in those eggs for Spring, so keep raising those ducks. As a side note my olive eggers...

    Quote: You could make a raised bed with a liner, fill it with crushed granite, and make an aquaponics system with the koi. Here is my raised bed. It was almost dark when the picture was taken so sorry about the quality. Here is a cheap greenhouse I got at Lowes for 50% off today. It...

    Quote: The muscovies are pretty big so a half dozen would be plenty to start with. Im jealous that you have so many ducks to eat. If you were closer I would buy some meat from you. I miss eating duck gumbo. It is rare that you find duck for sale in the grocery store. I used to hunt them...

    Quote: To me that's still high BUT since I've never processed a duck before I don't know how much harder it is to do than chickens!! I'm just guessing that if you skin it, it can't be that much harder can it?? ETA: With 50 birds you'd really think they would give you a discount!! You're...

    Quote: I wish you lived near Sulphur. I have some extra white silkie roosters that I need to get rid of. They are very beautiful chickens and very docile. I will need to take them to the sale barn in Dequincy soon because they fight amongst one another.

    Hi everyone. Im interested in raising some ducks. This project will kick into gear for Spring and I was wondering if anyone had any in the SouthWest Louisiana area that might be willing to part with some hatching eggs come Spring. I could trade some silkie eggs or sebright eggs. I am also...

    Quote: We are strange too I guess because the wierd names follow for our dogs also. Our oldest chihuahua Penny is "Pen Pen" or "piglet". Mojo is "Mojeeb". Zelda is "Zeldie woo woo" and Little girl who is a very ugly chihuahua is "giblet" or "Puggles". Yep, I guess the names of chickens and...
