    FINALLY SOMEONE IS MAKING WATERFOWL FEED IN MY AREA :celebrate

    I've had my ducks on Purina Flock Raiser since the arrived. They are now 7 weeks old and no problems as of yet. To tell the truth they are twice if not 3 times the size of my Barred Rocks who are now 8 weeks old.

    Lucky 13

    It's day 18 of my first try at incubating. I went the dry hatch approach with a LG with egg turner. I've candled twice and had to cull 9 all together. Just took them out of the turner and set in place now. I must say this has been a very interesting time. Had a few misques and almost cooked them...

    I think getting 3 after what you and they went through is great!

    I've ordered from them. Birds arrived in good health and have grown wonderfully. Great customer service as well.

    online ordering

    Ditto what iamcuriositycat said. I ordered from Metzer and all of mine are fine. Though ordering atm with the heat and everything I would go with Ideal just because they are closer.

    Is it Illegal to Sell Chicken Eggs?

    I read somewhere about you needing to have an NPIP cert to sell eggs or live chickens in the state of TX. From everything I have gathered it is free. They come out to your place and test a certain percentage or amount of your flock, depending on how many you have. I think there was a something...

    How to stop them from doing this?

    If they do not have any pests on them us Vick's Vapor Rub. Just smear it on the area of the one getting pecked. You might have to re apply for a few days or so.

    Are there 'signs' that they are about to lay?

    My girls pace around like they are trying to get to something that they just can't get. But that could just be my birds. They have yet to lay in the nesting boxes. They prefer the corner of the coop.

    Do hens know where to lay?

    Maybe it's because mine are still young, but they will not lay in them. They have formed nests in them with the fake egs, but still rather make a next in the corner under the roost.
