    Muscovies in US - REGULATION CHANGES OPEN FOR COMMENTS - 10/1 update

    I follow the same theory that Sharon from sands has said. They are going to sit back and wait for the breed to die out genetically. The sad thing is that what is going to happen is they are going to kill the meat market too. You see when you buy a duck at the grocery store to grill. Well my...

    had to tarp most of the run today

    We have gotten close to 6". Sadly we lost three birds that drowned when one of the growout pens flooded. We now have the whole thing wrapped in a tarp. When the rain is coming sideways it is hard to stop.

    how did that happen?

    The Grey pearl gene is dominent in guineas. So if you breed a pearl to a lavender you will hatch pearls but they will have the gene for lavender but it will be subdominent.

    Pa laws on Wood Ducks

    If you purchase them from a permited breeder you will be issued a possesion permit. I believe it is a 9099 permit. But in order to sell ducks,eggs,and chicks you need a different permit. You can not even give away anything without the permit. All offspring that you sell or give away and have to...

    Please help with guinea questions...

    Whether you get Keets or Adults you will be happy with what they do for your horse pastures. Our guineas will spread the horse poop out looking for leftover grain. Most of the time I don't have to drag. They will also go in the stall and eat dropped grain. The horses have learned to live with...
