Does anybody in Eastern Idaho have adult ducks they would like to sell or trade for?
I am mostly interested in Muscovy, Welsh Harlequins, or broody Pekins. Basically I would like a calm duck breed that I can expect to lay eggs and hatch them this spring/summer,
I have a couple bucks that I was told were Holland Lops. I live in Ammon. PM me for an address. You can have one if you like. I was tempted to try and breed Rex furred lop bunnies, but I have decided to just concentrate on Rex my current Flemish/Rex/Silver Fox cross breed project.

If you were to meet me during my lunch break I would be willing to help you out. I've only butchered chickens, but I've heard quail are easy. I can meet you 12pm on a weekday at Beech's corner near Idaho Falls. Maybe if you bring lunch for my buddy and I we can knock it out for you?
CyndiD, I think you meant to type Western Idaho and Eastern Washington, but I know what you meant. Also, have you considered White Leghorns or any of the sex linked hybrids for winter laying. Mine have performed better than my barred rocks and EEs.
Also, I am hoping to start selling duck eggs...
I live with my wife and kids in the in Ammon near Idaho Falls. I have chickens, rabbits, and pigs (shhh.. Dont tell my neighbors about the pigs). I grew up on a cattle ranch, but I've only raised small animals for the last year or so. However, I've learned to save lots of $$$ by buying local...
Thanks for the warm welcome!
I've got a mixed flock with 6 barred rocks, 2 leghorns, 3 golden stars, 4 auracanas, and 1 RIR. I love the personalities of my BR's the most, but I've been really impressed with the big brown eggs that my golden stars lay most every day. I think I will order ISA...
I've read posts on this site for years, and I've decided to join in the fun .
I've got chickens, rabbits, and pigs right now . I've tried ducks and quail, and will be doing ducks again this spring.
I am CHEAP! Because although I farm for fun , it has to at least break even for me financially...
