The dog has a stronger chain now. I am relieved to not listen to his crying in the kennel anymore! Plus, I didn’t trust him to not mess in the house when he wasn’t outside as much. He seems to still have trouble holding it from “gotta go!” to getting outside during the day. Like a preschooler.
Of course, it’s nice being able to just put him out right outside the door.

Went out to check on animals water. And found these on the chicken coop floor.
I am sure the 1 is a duck. The other not sure what it is.

It’s an egg!

It is so nice to have duck eggs again. I have not had any for 1-2 months now.

I have 1 pekin, 2 fawn and white Indian runners, 2 Cayuga, 6 khaki campbell.
And out of the 6 khaki Campbell 2 are males.

Anyone near Chester County want any ducks or bantams (or bantam ducks) ?
I've got too many to keep over the winter. Looking to give a few away.

Hope you have some takers! I just managed to pawn off about 22 cockerels. They leave tomorrow morning. That SHOULD bring my chicken flock down to less than 50. I'll have to do another count tomorrow but I think I'll be down to close to 40.

I could not help myself. I got 7 ducklings on Monday.

@dheltzel What kind of bantam do you have?

@dheltzel What kind of bantam do you have?

Cochins and Ameraucanas. Some black and lavenders of each. Cochins are easier to sex, so I have both sexes of those. Ameraucanas are much harder to sex, and smaller, so you need to house them apart from large fowl.
