We finally have babies.
I'm guessing the lighter are my lilac ducklets and the darker are blue drakelets? DH is going to help me try to corral and take pictures tomorrow.
Sorry I've not been around much this year.
I am looking to rehome my three EEs. Two hens and a roo. If anyone is interested, message me. Also looking for some fun eggs to hatch or suggestions on putting Muscovy eggs under her. I have four broodys and lost the eggs in transition to a new house...
We're considering Nigerian's next year. Haven't decided yet because it would mean downsizing my flock.
@Nyla - here's a today picture DH sent me. Their caruncles aren't even turning orange to suggest thye're laying somewhere hidden.
@Nyla I have some pictures of the girls in the Muscovy Picks thread. We were told they were two. The girls that came with the lavender drake, there might be some pictures in our PMs.
I have:
three silkie hens not laying, and my silkie roo
two EE hens laying, and their EE roo
two Maran hens laying, fairly regularly
one Muscovy Drake
two Muscovy Hens
The silkie's I expected to be fairly lax on their laying. They're more eye candy than anything else. BUT I AM SO READY FOR...
If you're still looking, there is a lady in Lafayette, KoriLynn I think. But she posted on Keysey Acres that they were hatching calls. Idk if they ahve a physical site, but they are on FB.
It looks like a Red-Shouldered Hawk.
"Identification: Brown above with reddish barring across light breast. Brownish-red shoulders. The dark tail is crossed by narrow white bands. "
I have a handsome EE Rooster, his sister's lay blue and he hatched from blue. Year old last month. I could loan him to you or trade for a laying hen of some sort if you want to PM me.
