    So...I have a duck related question. I have 5 ducks that I rescued late last year. There were three hens and two drakes. One of the drakes is a little call duck. Soooo, my big drake had been chasing my little guy around in an obvious "leave my girls alone" way. Well, the other morning I woke up...

    Ok, so I know I'm coming into this a bit late but here goes my trapping info. I am a licensed trapper and have been trapping for several years. The way that the law reads is that you may only trap (foothold, kill or live) if you are licensed to do so. That said, it is legal to shoot any...

    Ok...so I am considering getting 2 or 3 guineas this spring. No other reason other than tick control and fowl entertainment I guess. I have about 10 acres and very chicken/ fowl tolerant neighbors in the country. Besides their noise has anyone had any negative issues (or even positive for that...

    Hey all. Still looking for olive eggers and/ or black copper marins. I am not exactly set up for chicks yet but I guess I could figure it out in a pinch. I would prefer older pullets. But at this point beggers can't be choosers. Would love a black Marin roo. Anyone have anything they may be...

    Quick question and a comment...not necessarily in that order. First off, I am a male and will stand up and say I my chickens are pets as well.
