    She won't let me near them, she gets so upset, so candling them is out of the question. I thought I had a mixed clutch of kc's and scovies, but the kc's would have been due tues and I got nothing. So i'm thinking they may be all muscovies and be due this tues. Unless she's sitting on a few...

    Question: eggs are do to hatch in a few days and when i was feeding and watering mama, i noticed an egg was out of the dog house, like 5ft away. Is there any reason she would do this and should i leave it out or put it back in with her? Also, when I peeked in at her, 1 of the eggs was real dark...

    It was the liver not the lungs I was looking at. There is a government site on what's safe to eat that covered blackhead and histomasis, I'm sure i spelled that wrong, lol and a bunch of other diseases. According to that, it is safe to eat if it had any of those diseases, just to discard liver...

    Now that you say liver, I'm not sure if i was looking at the liver or lungs. Being my 1st time dressing one out and all. It was large compared to the rest, I tried looking some pics up on you tube for dressing out a turkey and organs to see, but i'm not finding much to know exactly what i was...

    I checked pictures of blackhead and fowl pox, he did not look like either. He had a totally red head and red neck with just a dime sized patch of black on the top of his head. Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures. After he was dressed out, he was 11 lbs. I would hate to waste it if it was...

    Hi, I have BBW that was doing fine and a few days ago it hit just over 90 and he was running in the backyard and just collapsed. His head was very dark red and warm and panting heavily. We got him in the garage with fans and water and after an hr he got up and walked out on his own. He has never...

    Turkey/heat stroke/safe to eat?

    The organs looked ok to me as far as the intestines and heart and such. No signs of worms or anything like that either. the only thing we weren't sure on was what we thought were the lungs, it was the largest organ we pulled out was kinda grey where all the others were pink, so not sure on that...

    So to stop the fighting, I kicked the khaki's off the nests and out and my muscovy is sitting on the mixed nest now. Not to sure what will happen since the eggs are mixed. If any hatch at 28 days, i will know they are khaki's and any that are left will be muscovy's. Will she be able to continue...

    Know i'm wondering, hmmmm, My last clutch was all muscovies with a muscovy mom and this clutch is mixed with the khaki's. Do they have 2 different hatch dates? I know muscovy is 35 days, but don't know khaki's. I divided the pen yesterday because all the ladies were fighting. The khaki's are on...

    Well here we go again. All my muscovy babies are sold and gone. I was gone a few days and now there appears to be 3 nests in the igloo doghouse. The muscovy is sitting on 1 and my 2 khaki's on the other 2, looking right at each other. I see them quarreling a bit and nudging eggs over to the...

    I could never freeze any, they would be gone to quick also. We usually do 2 flats and get around 40 pints of jam and sometimes we do 2 pies . Then we do 20 pints of raspberries and 20 pints of blackberries in the fall and can you believe were already down to 1 jar only left. When my grandma was...

    Congrats to all on the ducklings and the ones yet to come. My first hatch ever of 16 are all gone already and i miss the little guys, so glad i can see some on here. However, it is nice to see mom and dad together all day swimming in the pond and him not alone anymore. Would like to thank Lydia...

    When do Buff Orpingtons start laying?

    They really range in age at point of lay. They seem to mainly be between 18-24wks on an average, but then you get those early and late bloomers. lol 1st egg you find is always so awsome, everytime a new one lays
