That's kinda what I expect too he.gif  with PR

 

I ordered from PR around the same time I ordered from Holderread maybe 1-2 day difference and the Holderread order was mailed vs the online order through PR so PR should have been the ones contacting me first to say when they expected to ship. I'm so fed up with them at this point rant.gif

 

On the bright side my silkies are going to be here in May!!!!!!! tongue2.gifwee.gif

Hello everyone  frow.gif  It has been a long day here...finished up all of my Call duck breeding pens, and their drainage system.  Very pleased with all my hard work!  The ducks are, too!

 cull some Muscovy drakes that were humping the chickens at work. That will not be tolerated, so 5 Muscovy drakes now have an appointment with our smoker.

Hate it, but it's for the health of our chickens, so it had to be done.

 

 

 

Sometimes ya just gotta do what ya gotta do.  I like a happy farm, so I have low tolerance for problem "children".

Julie-  Maybe woody is just sleeping.   idunno.gif

 

 

ChickenCrazy:  I'm fed up too, and there's nothing I can do about it.  I'm thinking the 30 something bucks I spent on eggs is gone.

I wanted just to test my Blue head rouen but my husband mixed them with the Geen head too. My mix ducks are Pekin x runner drakes then what we think is a Ca x Pekin. The babies are cut but they will be for meat. I only want to do the Rouen's and try my hand at Calls but I hear they can be very hard to inc or even get them started.
