Thanks for the information on the Muscovy. I tried to ask a question on a different page before I found this section and I had my question answered in reading the information you provided. I don't know much at all about ducks but this breed really interests me.
A Duck Breed I am interested in...but know nothing about ducks really. Can you house them over winter with the chickens? Or is it better if they have their own space?
Prince Edward Island is where Anne of Green Gables takes place...on the east cost just above the Maine/New England area. Prince Edward County is in Ontario and is a county in the province that also happens to be an Island joined to the mainland by a bridge and is in Lake Ontario...just above...
Thanks so much for the tips...just the kind of help I need and great to get pointed in the right direction. We are trying to plan our coop right now, so your link for ventilation is perfect! Thanks so much!!
Millers Farm many of the breeds you mention are on my hit list. I am interested in the Black Australorp and Brahmas...but don't know if they are good choices or not. I really want a few Buckeyes if possible and i was told the Dorking tastes exceptional. I hope to have a mixed egg flock but...
Thanks NFC...there is lots of good information on the site. The dog is my Rory, he is an ex-racer, and my buddy. He is amazing and after he arrived he soon has became my unofficial service dog. I get cluster migraine...really sucks because I can't see and often can't speak when I get one...
Glad to have found this form, love learning more about Chickens. We are in the process of building our new house on the farm and chickens will be added shortly. Mostly interested in Heritage Breeds.
Cheers All!
