Here is a recent post on craigslist Santa Rosa area for a shed that would need only a little modification (pop door, roost, a couple windows). I look at shed ads all the time, this is a good price. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/grd/3065112565.html And, you would have room for a few more!

Alert to local folks. I have some BBS Ams from Pips and Peeps line parents in the bater, due to hatch on the 6th or 7th. I may have some to sell, depending on how many I get, I am keeping some. Should be a lot of splash and blue, as I have a splash and a black roo over two blue and one black...

I have Black Sweedish ducks and drakes, with only one Black Runner drake. My ducklings have always looked Black Sweedish, though, so maybe he is not the dad. I can hatch some anytime if you are interested. Here is one of the drakes posing on hubby's shoulder. We call this the cheep pirate...
