    I feared so. Haha. They are handsome. I don't know how we will decide who gets to stay. I am afraid they will hurt other is we have too many drakes.

    Ju Does this help at all for the blues? They are standing. With the black you felt is a drake.

    Thank you. I will need to figure out how to mark the blues to keep them seperate. They are starting to interact with my two confirmed drakes on the outside of the fence. They react the same to Huey and Louie as my four hens do. I am learning so much about them. They are interesting creatures!

    I watched the wing feathers and there were four that feathered faster on the blues and blacks and were smaller, but now they are all the same size and looks so similar! I wasn't sure when to start watching for caruncles either. I also got 4 "1.5 y/o hens" who are tiny! Only one lays eggs so...

    I isolated mine because the rest were terrified of him. They were young enough reintroducing him wasn't too stressful.

    @yoopergirl1211 appears so. If you youtube angel wing figure 8 you shoukd be able to see how to fix it. We repaired our duck in 3 days. We let him out of the bandage for about an hour a day. And he is great now. You can't tell it was an issue at all.

    This is our very first batch. At this point we are just waiting for them to hit maturity. We may start selling in the spring. The babies and my 4 hens come from a different bloodlines so we have worked to set things up for breeding. I think I see at least two lavenders, some blues, 2 whites and...

    First time Muscovy mom here. I currently have 7 at 3 months and 10 at 2 months. The blues and blacks are the older ducks. The lavender and chocolates are the younger. Of the older ducks, they are all the same basic size and of the younger, there is a blue barred who I believe to be a drake but...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    39 chicken eggs and 3 turkey eggs yesterday. Today way down to 19 chicken and up to 4 turkeys. This constant "severe" rain is making for a bunch of very wet, very muddy, very unhappy chickens! I can't wait for spring!

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I am hoping to construct mine this week or next, Maybe do some fall type crops in it and then do a hoop house over the top. I will be doing the "chicken salad" type mix. We don't get a lot of freezing weather here, so I just have to keep it from washing away in the rain. Hopefully by spring I...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I have found these cute little raised "garden" boxes on Pinterest that I want to try to get more grass in my coop. This is the photo I found. It seems like a great way to get vegetation in the coop while protecting the roots enough to grow!
