    Cute feather footed mix chix--4 months old--North Carolina

    The feather foots are easy to fall in love with. At this time I don't have but two that I would rehome. But I don't think we are very near each other. I am an hour north of Durham, NC. Come spring I will have more Cochin and sizzle chicks.

    I lost my khaki Campbell Drake the other day, if anyone has an extra please let me know. It was my fault. I had a duck who had a bad leg, and she was so miserable when I had her caged I figured there was no harm in leaving her out. I am guessing that something came and he tried to protect her.

    For two people who never ate many eggs, my hubby and I now eat eggs 4 or 5 days a week. And the other days we have French toast or some other egg consuming dish. And I scour Allrecipes.com for recipes that include eggs, the more the merrier. I don't bake any where near enough to use my duck...

    I try to keep the babies at least two weeks so mom can teach them about life. These babies are a week old, and I have another set that are two months old. The buyer is anxious for them to be ready to go!

    Good morning, Quick picture of one of my bantam cochin and her week old babies, out in this cold! It never ceases to amaze me the difference between raising them in a brooder vice a broody... I have to say, I am proud of my cats. We have seven barn cats and they walk by the chickens all the...

    How are the babies doing? You could try scrambled eggs? Or yogurt? I always had good luck with the nutri drench.

    The khaki-Campbell duck Thread !!!!!!!!

    As of yet, I haven't had a problem with any night time predators (2 years). I did have issues with hawks, but I haven't even had any issues with them since I moved the coop to the woods. The coop with run is in the goat pen, and the door on the run closes every night and keeps all the chickens...

    Mine used to go into the coop at night, but then I got a new drake and he put a stop to that. They still go into the run to eat and make sure the chickens don't have any treats that should be theirs, but only during the day. And they lay their eggs in brush piles. Right now I have 5 hens...

    Since we are on the subject of eggs. For those of you who allow your ducks to free range, do you have an Easter egg hunt every morning, or have you managed to get them to lay in on place?

    I hatched 33 chicks and 5 ducklings this year in the coop. The first ones I tried to separate and the momma was giving me issues, so after that I just let them go. The only issue I had was it set a pattern, first one, then two then five broodies. (I started sharing eggs so I wouldn't have a...

    I have some adorable cochin/silkie mix roosters that need homes. I have them listed at just $5. Three will be large fowl, and the red is a bantam. They are four months old. I live in Oxford (Granville County). Janelle
