I traded my Welsh Harlequins for this trio thinking the smaller ducks might work into my schedule a bit better, but I've realized I'm just not a duck person. These little guys are so darn cute I hate to part with them, but I just don't have the time or a good place to put them. Free to a good...

Was sent over here from another cheesehead that responded to my auction in the "other" category. Can I put the link here? https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=545923 If you think my prices are out of line, let me know. I know what I paid for the ducklings and shipping -...

I'm about an hour east of St. Paul, MN - or an hour west of Eau Claire WI I sent you a pm

Please post items for sale in auction format in the appropriate BSA section. Thanks

I thought African too, but their beaks are more orange than any other African goslings I've seen. But I coudl be wrong. The fella said they could be Toulouse - thats what hatched them out but he said he had an African gander and a Buff goose (is that the term for a female?) at his place at the...

A fella gave me a couple goslings. any idea what kind they are? Also...how do you tell them apart? My daughter wants to show one at the fair but we're not sure what gender they are. One has a more rounded tail whereas the other one has a v-shaped tail. Aside from one being a touch...

I also ordered from them...mine were hatched on May 2, so they are 4 weeks old. Did your penciled runners stay completely gray even on their heads and then molt out into white feathers? None of mine have any white on them at all and I ordered (and received - according to their packing list)...

My daughter is taking some of our new ducks to the fair this year. They classes are split into the following category: 1) meat duck 2) egg duck 3) bantam duck 4) any other standard 5) cross bred duck We will have Welsh Harlequins, Indian Runners, Cayugas, and mini-silver apple yards. She can...

Update!! We found him! My DH went to get something from his car at 6:00am this morning and says I'd better come quick! After a very sleepless night, my mind immediately thought the worst. But...here - in our garage - was our missing goat. Now..we were in & out of the garage a hundred times...

We just bought two 8 week old fainting goats and brought them home on Sunday. They have a safe, secure pen inside our shed while we finished fencing the pasture (spring rain delayed us). Tonight - just 2 days later - my daughter (she's 12) didn't close the door properly and one of the goats...

Great setup! I just set something up using an automatic waterer attached to a hose with a float in it. It' s only been running for 2 days but my immediate observation is the need to easily dump the basin of water and rinse it because of the amount of junk they leave in the bowl. Will you be...

It's working out awesome! I have a few drip drips at the faucet I need to fix, but otherwise, these little automatic waterers are going to be such a time saver. This morning the ducklings all seemed fine - and a few of my 4 week old pullets had joined them under the heat lamp. These...

I had to post a follow up for anyone searching the forums and came across my original post. The chick is absolutely fine now. I can still tell which one it is, but it's getting harder and harder to pick him out. We named him (or her) Roly Poly Oly. So don't give up on these little guys...

Quote: Congrats on the email!!! I received my Holderreads order back on May 4, and I also ordered 15. Yikes is right!! I am feeding mine duckling grower which my local feed store carries (lucky me). I did read on the "treats for ducks" that spinach is not really good for them, because of...
