    Male or Female Welsh Harlequin duckling?

    Review by 'peachyduckies' in article 'Quail Species and How To Pick The Right Bird For You'

    A wonderfully written article. Went very into detail and the author didn’t forget a single thing. 5 out of 5!

    New Ducklings Arriving tomorrow 5/25

    Female geese with drakes

    First of all, your geese will not necessarily guard your flock. However, they may sound an alarm if they see a predator or a stranger approaching them. Second of all, your geese and drakes may mate. You can’t hatch the eggs that the geese have laid, since they generally have a low fertility...
