Hello! I own a large variety of geese,ducks,chickens and usually turkey's as well.I love to hatch,rear,care for and love my birds!I currently have 8 chickens,2 ducks and 2 geese.I have read many books on care and raising of these birds and would love answering any questions I will do my best!
So far I have:
A rooster named Heliotrope named after the flower of October which is a sizzle,polish,1/2 wyandotte and unknown mix along with his brother Dello named after imagination.

Muttly named after her mix of breeds hatched by Daisy she is half barred rock and unknown mixture.
Daisy named after the flower a full barred rock hen.
Sunshine named after her color my pure buff Orpington hen.
Here is Phoenix named after her muff and personality my ameraucana hen.
Oreo named after her black and white look as a chick my half barred rock mutt.
My black barred muscovy drake Clark him and his brother Lewis named after the explorers.
Lewis brother of Clark.
Assyra my african female goose,named after a place in the bible.
Damascus best friend of Assyra is female also named after a place in the bible.
Here is Damascus's first egg!
I feed them all a mix of 21% protein game bird crumble and scratch.
I get very few chicken eggs about 0-2 a day and every once in awhile I'll get a tiny egg like the one in this picture it was only the size of a quarter!
I have a few small waterers for drinking and one big trough for bathing and all are cleaned every day.
If you would like to know more on the care of such a variety of birds here is another one of my articles:
