    Feral Egyption goose at epcot in Florida

    I just think these are very cool birds. Everyone keeps saying they are aggressive but mine eat out of my hands. I also have them with my black-bellied whistlers and they all seem to get along fine.

    Buff Dewlap Toulouse Thread

    My greys dewlaps seem to be growing fast but my one buff is growing slow. I just love the Toulouse breed so switching to the dewlaps was a no brainer for me. I have one that knocks on my door for extra snacks so I had to place a gate on my porch. I noticed the dewlaps are not as "curious" as the...

    Buff Dewlap Toulouse Thread

    Is anyone going to be selling buff dewlap goslings or fertile eggs in spring? I love to get a good line in with my girls.

    My rooster is 3 years old silver-grey dorking. He does have some long spurs but I think that is his 5th toe. A friend showed me how to cut down the spurs but it is harder for me to do than what it looks. My dorking hen is sitting on eggs. She is also about 3 years old so I hope for some babies...

    My poor rooster has been in molt since spring. :/ he went from looking at my avatar to that. Lol. He's a lot worst looking from the front view but he is camera shy and completely bald in front. Glad what feathers he has can do a "comb over".

    Buff Dewlap Toulouse Thread

    Well had my goslings sexed- I have 3 males and 4 females in the grey Holderread's line and......my one buff....it's a girl :( The guy that did it just pressed on the back end- he said they are to hard to do vent sexing at the age- so going on appearance, coloring, and bone structure...that's...

    Buff Dewlap Toulouse Thread

    I can tell by the shape of their heads on standard or production grey Toulouse but with dewlaps...I am only right half the time. Lol. Guess I would be in the same situation if I called them all males or all females or tossed a coin. Lol. Anyways- here is a photo of my one buff baby taken today...

    Homemade Incubators

    That's a great awesome idea with the lights...I sure will have to give that a try once I'm feeling better :D It gives the ordinary incubator box some show and tell. I been wanting to add a light but I never thought of that kind. Have you hatched in your incubator yet? I had like 3 sportmans but...

    Homemade Incubators

    Does your incubator have lights in that Ankron? I was thinking of adding a blue light also because it would allow me to see in during the night without having the light so bright...what a great idea :) I don't have luck with those plastic turners...for some reason- they never make it past a...

    Cubans

    Thanks so much for the info...I had a feeling they have attachment bonds with each other because they don't even go into the water without the other one going in. I may just get another pair so they can have more company. They do seem to enjoy being with my other ducks until they started flying...
