    3 month old Rouen/ Khaki campbell mix duck hen in Kelso WA

    I have a 3 month old duck that I would like to re-home. She was hatched out by her mama and has always walked with a limp. She is the smallest of my birds and the others sometimes like to pick on her. She has been raised of Non GMO feed and Veggie scraps. Local pick up only. Thank you!

    Breed of Geese that tastes like pork?

    I know this is an old post, but I don't believe it's reasonable to accuse the bible of error because it does not adhere to a modern man-made classification system. Consider what rabbits do. Rabbits normally produce two kinds of feces, the more common hard feces as well as softer fecal pellets...

    Butchering a turkey- How do I get turkey bacon?

    Thanks everyone. I understand it's not a pig and you can't just cut off a chunk and call it bacon. I was mainly wondering if anyone here has tried it and I wanted to try it myself. We don't eat pork, but love turkey bacon. The uncured delicious stuff from places like whole foods, not the thin...

    Butchering a turkey- How do I get turkey bacon?

    I am looking into getting turkeys, but when it comes time to process I want to be able to get some turkey bacon. How would I do that? I've processed chickens and ducks, but never a turkey. I've searched the internet, but can't find anything on it. Thanks!

    Wow, that's a lot of losses! Do you think shipping had something to do with it? I'm on day 21 of my first hatch. I put in 3 chicken eggs and 3 duck eggs (from my chickens/ ducks). Half way through had to toss out 2 of the chicken eggs (they had a blood ring). The rest are doing great Just hoping...

    Is anyone else feeling *REALLY* happy to be raising their own chickens right now?

    That's cute! I love when kids have no problem accepting that some animals are food!

    Is anyone else feeling *REALLY* happy to be raising their own chickens right now?

    That's funny. When my niece was 4 I was talking about fishing and asked if she wanted to eat some fish. At that moment she realized what fish sticks really were and was so upset! I didn't want to raise my children like that so I teach them where meat comes from. When my daughter was 3 we passed...

    Cornish X's = Nastiest birds EVER

    I free ranged mine and fed them twice a day. It was strange to see a bird grow so fast! They were healthy and active, but at 12 weeks I butchered them and they smelled worse ( before the butcher) then any other chicken I have processed! One had a really soft heart too, like it was about to go...
