    Advice on a new breed.

    This Spring I started selling chicks at my Dad's hardware store. I was very successful selling silkies and ducklings, d'uccles didn't do so well because nobody knew what they were. For utility birds I sold frizzled NH Reds. These went like hotcakes, but more for novelty than utility. It's clear...

    Sponsored Post Hatching the Facts on Medicated Chick Starter Feeds for Layers

    Is amproilum safe for ducks, geese, & turkeys? Either as a medication or if it's just ingested in passing if they pick up some of the medicated feed?

    What is it like to show?

    I am interested in making good breeding choices, improving the quality of my flock and meeting new people since I don't know anybody who has my breeds (showgirls, mille fluers, sebastopols).

    Geese Relationship Troubles

    When I said He abandoned her I meant he pushed her out of his own flock again which consists of the 2 Canadians and some ducks. I dont mind if she gets crossed with the sebbies as long as they get fertilized. She's obviously happier with them.

    Geese Relationship Troubles

    So Hansel spent a week couped up with her alone and they seemed to be getting along OK. Then as soon as I let them out he abandoned her again. I have 5 sebbies that are kept separate from the embdens, 2 ganders and 3 geese. Tonight I went to the barn and discovered that Gretel had snuck in with...

    Geese Relationship Troubles

    OK, so today I managed to catch them and place them in a barn stall all by themselves. Hansel was very angry and spent the first 5 minutes beating up on the goose. Then, to my amazement he actually flew out of the barn. He is very heavy and has never flown before so he must have wanted out very...
