    Pekin Duck Club!

    That would be great if they lay through the winter. I live in west central Illinois by the Iowa border, we can get some pretty cold winters and they are predicting this is going to be one of them so we will see. Was totally suprised when I seen it. I was told they were Easter babies so not...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    YAY!!!!! My very very very first egg! (My chickens aren't even laying yet) This was in my duck pen, so it could either be Pekin duck or sebastopol goose egg but I have a feeling it's duck! The first pic is a pic of it next to a grade A large store bought egg. I'm so eggsited lol!

    Cuckoo Maran rooster?

    The feet and legs of mine are a dark yellow. He is barred like that except starting to get blonde feathers by his hocks and by part of his wings. He does have some of that blue/green that is one of your pics only his is more blue. Here is another picture but still doesn't show the blue part.

    Cuckoo Maran rooster?

    Thanks everyone, I will have to take pictures as he continues to get old and keep everyone updated on how he turns out. I first noticed it with just a couple feathers on the back of his neck from a glance it looked like maybe he got in a fight with something and was missing some feathers. As I...

    Cuckoo Maran rooster?

    So I could end up with something pretty interesting LOL. I swear it's as if he is changing colors right before my eyes. When I first got him you would of swore up and down he was a pure barred rock, no color variation whatsoever. As he is getting older though as you can see in the pictures...

    Keeping Chickens Free Range

    I know a LOT of people who live in the city who would LOVE for the city to allow them to have backyard chickens, with that said I imagine not all people appreciate the benefits of chicken poop, especially if they are roosting in a tree over their yard. I think your best bet is to get a fence...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    I don't want a house duck, what I am wanting is a duck that I can raise to be like a pet but happily integrate with my other ducks but maybe still seek me out for attention from time to time. Is that possible?

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Thanks, it has become my evening pass time before all the ducks and chickens go in their coops for the night to sit on my tree bench swing and watch them. I scatter scratch grain around me as a treat also to get them to warm up to me. I LOVE the sebbie goose, he/she acts like a rooster with the...
