CG, excellent plan.  I'm still very hopeful for your babies!!

 

Our last 3 duckies for sale have been picked up.  They were very calm for the new owners.  They have a little girl that was so sweet with them. The duckies were calm and let her pet them.  They were excited to get them!  And so am I.... because they went to the perfect home!!  Our remaining four act like they don't care... and are happy for the extra space.  Life is good.

 

 


OH GOODNESS!!!! yeah!!!! go little goosies go!!!!

             me to i feel so much better with the number i have now..

awww dont you just love that when you know that they go to a good home. where they will be taken care of i mean all that time and effort hatching them it kinda is a bummer to have to sell them to anyone.

     

 CG i agree dont give up hope.. :(

I put apple cider vinegar in their water and it cleared up.


GREAT IDEA!!

      i use to alway put apple cider in the water and i stoped.. i think it was because it froze in the barn and i never started it back up when it warmed up..

Afternoon all, felt the need to move all the furniture from the living room and steam clean the carpet. Nice when it's done, pain in the rear while doing it.

Had to laugh reading comments about how many birds others have and we getting rid of.

9 Sebastopol geese plus picking 2 more up mid March
2 African geese

3 French white Muscovy
6 Silver Appleyards
4 buff
6 khaki Cambell
9 call ducks

2 apricot wood ducks
2 white mandarin ducks
6 normal mandarin ducks

Roughly 70-90 chickens at any given time

4 meat rabbits
4 standard lop Earred rabbits
4 baby lop Earred bunnies

2 fainting goats

2 great Pyreneese

3 house cats

1 mini doxie

Oh and a flock of Bob White quail we hatched, raised and now have loose on the property. Odd little buggers come when I go out calling them in the evenings and put their food out.

OMG those fainting goats are too cute.  I saw something about them on Animal Planet.
