    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    I know this was an old post (that's still going!), but I've been clearing out my emails today lol So for my check-in update, it's not as fun as others. I still don't have chickens 😔. Still no coop built, not for lack of trying. I live with others who like to hoard and claim things like wood and...

    Suddenly duck (also what breed? Lol)

    His boss said she was a swedish silver. I cooked her today and she was 1 pound 10.9 oz (1.6 lbs, or 0.763 kg) cleaned out at 6 or 7 months old... Is this right? She wasn't laying, nothing looked wrong with the internals, I saw what I assumed was tiny eggs. I know nothing about ducks... The...

    No plucking contraption, but it's not like I'm doing anything tomorrow after running to the store in the morning lol. This is the first live bird we've received. We had two freshly hunted geese last year, but we just breasted them

    Suddenly duck (also what breed? Lol)

    So my boyfriend's boss was looking to get rid of a duck and we decided to take it for food and to see how the dogs would react to smaller animals in the house/yard that aren't deer, rodents, or neighbor's cats. (They're afraid lol, it snapped at them) We're probably just going to use a hatchet...

    I'll have to do that. Right now we don't have chickens, let alone a coop. I've been reading so much on here so at least someone in the house can be prepared haha. My cousin is going to build ours, I'm just not sure when

    I'm practically in Illinois lol I'm about a mile from state line. I think Lafayette and Mexico are about the same distance when I looked at the map? Lafayette would be closer time wise due to 65. Rensselaer has cattle and hoofed vets, would they generally not accept poultry?

    Now I'm curious as to how far I'll have to go... I don't think the animal hospital in town does chickens... I've only seen dogs and cats. Peotone animal hospital and pretty much all the rest around here don't mention chickens

    Komo's is unfortunately out of business as of probably 10 year's ago?? That kinda doesn't seem right... it has been a long time. But there's Welch's in St John on 41 (in the building just north of where Kmart used to be) and on Rt 30, there's Rob's to the East of Jewel

    I'm not sure. My dad used to chat up the one butcher before they closed here (Lowell, shop was in Cedar Lake). I think it depended more on the weight/size, quantity, and specific cuts? The venison butcher/taxidermist down the road does $95 basic cuts, according to his signs. I'd definitely give...
