    Geese & Duck People UNITE

    She's doing great! She fits right in now and holds her own with a couple of my bossier females! I'm glad to hear her sibling is doing well. Has he gotten cozy with your girls? He was quite the "ladies man" with my flock . I promise to post pics soon, but with the cold weather I stay inside to...

    C'mon Duck people!

    I've heard mixed reviews about ducks and chickens living together. I've seen it done and there didn't seem to be any problems. But I've heard stories about serious (fatal) aggression problems. I think if you let them check each other out through some sort of barrier for a while it could...

    C'mon Duck people!

    I definitely second moving their pen around unless you give them a very large permanent pen or free range. My duck area has expanded more than once since I got them because they turned the smaller areas into a muddy mess very quickly (and maybe because I keep getting more ). Once thing I...

    Okies - Lots of Birds for Sale! *update

    runner duck question

    Runners are good layers too. Mine have been able to fly over a 4 foot fence on a windy day. I trim the primaries on one wing and then they can't gain any height.

    Is this an Australorp pullet? *update*

    Don't worry about the introductions. The weather wasn't exactly inviting! Birds aren't for everyone especially if they don't know what they're getting into. My husband thought they wouldn't take up too much of my time. I'm certain about the one Pekin and 4 Khaki Campbells. Not sure on the...

    Is this an Australorp pullet? *update*

    Hi, I'm the friend that took the ducks. I'd be in over my head to guess about a possible breed being a duck person, but I will add this comment on the size. One of the ducks I took is a Pekin and WAY to small. He's about half the weight he should be at his age (although I swear he's put on a...
