    Starlight Green Eggers?

    I got a bunch of starlights today and while there was quite the variety of markings and color variations, NONE of then were black at all...those do look like marans to me. Here are my nuggets ☺️

    How far are you from Lafayette? I literally just asked my husband today if we could do chickens again, and he said "uhh sure..." Mostly so if this covid craziness gets bad we ATLEAST have eggs...I'm not sure if I could talk him in to driving too far yet lol

    Pekin Duck Club!

    No drainage, his eyes look sleepy, but clear and alert when we get near him. He's the only drake, and only have one female duck, they share a large covered pen with a very friendly rooster and 5 hens (all raised together from the start) they have their own pool and totes made into "duck houses"...

Picked him up and he didn't fuss or fight, which is very unusual,he let me carry him all the way in to the house. He's eating, but have yet to see him drink. Ve...

    YO GEORGIANS! :)

    Thank you. I have some chicks but theyre too little to go out yet, i was considering getting a couple hens to keep him company until the chicks can go out, don't even care if they're laying. I'm in oakwood/gainesville area.

    YO GEORGIANS! :)

    Thank you, I've got 6 chicks, but it will be a while before they can go outside, let alone be with him. I was talking to my husband last night about finding a hen or two to keep him company until the chicks get bigger. I don't even care if they are laying, I'll still get duck eggs, I just don't...

    YO GEORGIANS! :)

    He seems to be in shock, he let me pick him up, and clean him, he was shivering (he lost A LOT of feathers) so I actually brought him in and he just sat on the back of the couch and let me clean him. He's been just watching out the window, poor guy I think he's traumatized and heartbroken.
