    Idaho?

    Is there anybody in Ammon that would like to try hatching some duck eggs? I'll let you keep 1/3 of the live hatch. If so Ill start saving my eggs up.

    Idaho?

    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.

    Hello from Idaho

    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...
