I love my collie! She's great with the animals. She's 8 months old and herds the ducks for me. The lady I bought her from was into obedience, and her dad and others are titled in obedience, so I don't know if that made a difference. I told the lady I wanted one that would be a good farm dog...
So turkey heads are the original "mood" rings? I've been wondering what the colors mean. My tom turkey's head turns blue when he gets treats - so I thought it meant happy.
Yay! 3 does! I love the diapers! Very pretty doelings with great names. Congrats!
I'll very soon have some new kid arrivals, so please send some of that pink energy this way, lol
Banter, you're right about the talking thing. They do like to be talked to. And they do like apples. I did a search for goose treats on here and somebody said apples.
Thanks for the idea of time for them to get used to me and stuff. I put their gander in with them this evening, so they...
Can anybody give a ride to a little tiny hen? She's going to PoultryHaven. My truck is in the shop being fixed and I won't be able to make it this weekend. If somebody could meet me even, I could get the hen to them. And they could get her to him. I do apologize for the late notice on...
It's a good meat. And definitly brine it, otherwise it'll be tough. Mine had a more subtle flavor and would probably lend itself to whatever you wanted to use as herbs with it. I know it fetches a good price in fine restaurants in Europe. They also have a good bit of white meat on them, due...
I have a guinea that attacks the "other guinea" - it's really funny, and now that I have more guineas, the others come and watch the "fight".
I believe that they would try to go through the looking glass to sit on the other side of the perch. Thanks, Muranofarms, for making my night, I...
OK, I got two Pilgrim ladies from Holderreads. They're mature ladies. How do I get to be friends with them? I've had them 2 days and they don't know me so they hiss and stuff. Are there any special goose treats that I can use to win their pretty hearts? I have 3 other geese who I've...
Terrielacy, that goose has the most beautiful face. I agree that would be a great avatar.
Does she have a particular flavor of Cheerios that she likes? We need a goose calender. She'd be a great Miss January, Rock Wyandottes lady pilgrims could be The Misses of October, and .....
Silly, would either of those roos be eating size? I offered a family in need a chicken and duck (along with eggs) to eat for Christmas. They got the duck. I had the chicken ready to call her and give her but then we had more people than expected so I cooked it for us. So, now I need to...
If you want to see some great guinea footage of them from little keets to 18-20 weeks, look on You Tube for Guinea Fowl TV. I can't link to You Tube from this computer, but I'll put a link if you want, when I get home.
It's got great music and even some dialog.
OMG! I love all the pictures of the geese. I have pilgrim geese and I am going to tease the 2 males with those gorgeouse shots of those beautiful ladies in the pool. Rock Wyandotte, my gander William says he'd like to come swim with those two ladies, and so the debate continues, who is...
I'm glad you posted this thread, because I wanted to share what I gave my aunt and my cousins, and my family. Especially because I owe it much in part to BYC and Miss Prissy.
My aunt always wants something given on her behalf. I had been seeing those ads for give hope, give a goat, or...
This looks great! Lakeland is conveniently located.
Anybody got any mixed breed hatching eggs they'd be willing to sell me. Or any Plymouth Barred Rocks. I lost my PBR cockerel to a predator - so I need one of those.
As far as the designer chickens, any and all breeds are welcome, as...
Rainstorm, when those duck eggs hatch in about a month, I want to see pics.
Tell your aunt, I'd be more than happy to go duck gathering on her place. Sounds like a great way to get some scovies. And lady friends for that scovy of yours if he's still available.
