We have no cedar trees in our yard. We have chinese tallow, magnolia, pecan & chinaberry trees. Would any of those ashes cause a problem with The Ladies?

Not that I know of. I have done a lot of reading on this, since my girls started this on their own. I didn't want them to hurt themselves. The only thing I found is that cedar, when burned is toxic to them. While it is burning and the ashes left behind. I forget where I read it,but I will do some more research, and find out what I can. Better to be safe than sorry.

Glad to hear Howard had someplace to go while things mellowed out.  What about the guy who wanted Howard + Crested?  Is he no longer interested, or are you still undecided about selling them to him?

Also very glad to hear Ebony laid her egg...Sorry she is hurt.  Hope she recovers quickly.

Howard wouldn't have lived that long had he stayed here. My sister and brother in law came to drop off my new rooster while my hubby and I were soaking Ebony and discussing the hatched for Howard. My sister loves the crested look, my brother in law liked Howard look. So they pretty much brought Howard the time he needs. This guy and I were hashing things out. He mainly wanted the crested, not Howard. At my sister's, my brother in law likes Howard and my sister likes Loudmouth, so each has a champion. And, if they dont work out there, I get the ducks back. It is the agreement we made.

Someone got bit by the Orpington bug! Lol. Can't blame you, I have some buff Orpington chicks that I love. I also have some black Austrolorps that are suppose to have been bred from Orpingtons. Both have nice fuzzy butts, my daughter says when the wind blows up their skirts they remind her of Marilyn Monroe. Lol

Uh Oh, if you find yourself into Orps, do NOT look at SD Ranch in Farmersville

They're pricey but they're rarer colors and ohhhhh so gorgeous
It may help that they're a pretty long drive from you.

You mean like the Jubilee Orp? That is a gorgeous bird.
