I got this little guy/girl from Atwoods today. It was to cute to pass up. Got it out of the bantam bin. Its actually a silver color all over. black legs. No feathers on the legs. Anyone know what Breed it is? cuz i have no clue.
Im thinking that this is going to be much more of a project than i originally thought of. But, with all the input you guys are giving me, all the wonderful suggestions,this thing could be wonderful! You guys are great.
Darkmatter- i LOVE the way u think ; ]. The grain bin is about 15ft wide and about 8-9 ft tall not including the roof. Its like the Butler brand kind that sit on the ground.
Well i was going to turn an old grain bin into an immaculant chicken coop. Then my mother in law reminded me of how hot they get in the summer. Now what am i going to do? Any one have suggestions? All are welcome. I want something different for 20 birds.
Does rick have a website by chance? i have heard about his wonderful rosecombs but did have a clue he had ducks at all. Just thought a website might be helpful also.
Cajunhillbilly- I LOVE your avatar. To cute. BBB- I have had my eye on ur bantams for a while. Very nice. One of these days im gonna get ahold of you when i get ready for some. Also how is the coloring on ur cayuga eggs?
Do they sell eggs or just hatchlings? And does anyone know about their egg quality? I would like to find some that at least are close to standards for cayugas.
Im looking to get some cayugas but would like to start with eggs this time. And from a good breeder who has some cayugas of decent blood line. Not just another hatchery ducky. Can anyone help me?
So im looking to buy an incubator for next spring. In you guys' opinion what the best one out there for hatching out at least 12 at a time for chicken and duck eggs?
I just got my first egg out of my fav girl today. Shes 25 weeks old now. Shes the sweetest thing. I do see the size difference in the BEI now thanks to all your wonderful pictures! I think I'll have to give them a try next spring! so stinking cute!
Can someone please tell me the difference in cayugas and east indies? i mean from seeing pics and such they look alot alike. All ive ever had is cayugas but i wasnt sure if there was that much difference. Thought id ask the professionals. lol thanks!
our 1yr old RIR roo is so very rough with our hens. He has no clue what hes doing. Lol anyway ive tried giving him away and no one will take him. Of course. My husband suggested butchering but is he going to be any good? Texture, taste? Any suggestions?
