    Any Breeders in North Florida?

    I am wanting to add a couple ducks to my backyard little hobby farm and I am located in Eastpoint, fl with it between Panama City and Tallahassee. I don't mind driving a ways, but I really dont wanna pay all that money to ship for just 2 or 3 ducklings. Any info would be helpful!

    Are my chickens overheating?

    Thanks everyone! We placed a tarp over the uncovered part and put a large fan in the pen... it seems to have helped a lot! Also, I spray the ground when I change the water and they love it! Hopefully, they will make it through this awful heat wave!

    Can pigs and chickens live together?

    My mini pig does attempt rooting, so I am sure he will continue to do it. I have had a problem with him eating the chickens food, so I am going to build something up off the ground for the feed which will also give them an area to get away from Emmitt ( the pig ). I do have 2 separate roosts...
