I love this forum :>) I just built a feeder out of a 5 gal. paint bucket. Drilled 11 one inch holes around the bottom side of the bucket... To make sure the feed all comes out as it is eaten, I built a cone out of a piece of tin that fits in the bottom. I drew a circle on the tin using...

[/img] Here they are Buff babies

McMurrayHatchery.com 10 ducks is the minimum order. It worked for me :>)

My Buff female had 2 eggs, one hatched Friday, the other today ( Sunday ). they are in a pen with Mama, & Papa plus 4 other 4 to 5 week old Pekins. The Male chases the female around (for sex) the Mama chaces the Pekins, the little ones are getting stepped on and run over by everyone. Should I...

My Buff duck has been sitting on 2 eggs around 27 days + or - She was off for awhile about day 2 or 3. She was attacked by a dog... Luckily I was able to stop the attack but she ran off an hid the better part of that day. How long should I wait for them to hatch... If they don't hatch will she...

He has some wing feathers and tail feathers coming in but is loosing faster than they are coming in... Looks pitiful but acts OK. He is HUGE... twice as big as a Rhode Island Red chick that I got at the same time.

I have a 2-3 week old Cornish Rock that is losing its down and is mostly just skin ?? what is the problem ? Thanks

I have a male and female Buff. She started laying an egg a day in November but has had NO interest in sitting on them... I put a couple of plastic eggs in an area that she sometimes layed to get her to lay all her eggs there instead of all over the duck house. Well that worked fine for about 3...

I built a turtle trap out of some fence that is for keeping rabbits out of your garden. found a grate out of a smoker about 15" x 15" to use as a door then made the trap to fit the door. Built a small bait box out of 1/4" hardware cloth and put it on a welding rod so it could be suspended at the...

I have had the same problem. I had a snapping turtle problem. One of the ducks was eaten by a huge snapper and after that the other 9 would not go near the pond. Other predators have gotten 7 others. I am down to 2 ducks. I trapped and shot 8 snapping turtles. think I have them all but...

If you are not into the hunting thing.... and want something inexpensive..... look at an SKS 7.62 with hollow points. It is Chinese military gun semi auto. You can usually find them at pawn shops or gun shops. If you want to dress it up a little you can get a SYNTHETIC MONTE CARLO RIFLESTOCK...

These are some photos of the first snapping turtle I caught. UGLY !!!! But tastes pretty good.

I'm up to 5 snapping Turtles eliminated... Ducks are still afraid to even drink water from the pond... I caught them on hooks, in a trap and shot the last one with my .22 I added a scope to my Ruger 10/22 makes it a lot easier to aim and shoot. I did lose 4 other ducks to I don't know what...

Caught another turtle yesterday... Smaller than the first two. About 8" other two were 12". 4" difference does not sound like much but the first two were 14-15 lbs. and probably 3 times the size of the 8" one. With HUGE heads and mouths I think I saw another this morning...trap is set so I...

Caught another BIG snapping turtle in the pond. Ducks are still afraid to go into water. Made turtle soup. :>)

I have one Pekin about 12 weeks old and 9 other ducks 3 of each Rouen, Swedish Blue, & Buff, these are about 5 weeks old I did have 4 Rouen but one I think was eaten by a snapping turtle in broad daylight and witnessed by the other ducks. Now they will not go near the water. and I even have...

Quote: I know he is not the only one but I think he was the biggest. We have seen him lurking near the fish feeder last couple of years. Have hooked him a time or two but he usually got off by breaking the line. I was surprised when he let me pull him to the bank... His mistake ! There...

Caught a 14 lb. snapping turtle that has been harassing my ducklings.... and I suspect ate one in broad daylight. Been trying to catch him the last few days, but he has been stealing the bait and actually chewing on the metal leader that I was using to attach a hook and bait. Hooked him...
