I have three adult ducks two I raised from little fuzz balls - they lived with my chickens for awhile until one of the males thought the chickens were something he needed to breed with- not good so now they are in thier own yard with a kiddie pool and a little house and are loving it.
As far as...
I would love the 3.5 month - well as soon as the P.O tells you how much it will be to ship her - will give me an idea on how soon I can have her sent here.
Is she a friendly girl? does she like being held? I have not told Afflac yet that he is getting a wife - dont want to ruin the surprise for...
I have been looking for a pekin female for awhile and having no luck. I might be able to order one from privett but than poor Afflac would still be without a wife for awhile LOL
If you could please let me know how much to ship I will talk to DH and see if we can do it.
He has been in a great...

I would like to make some dried fruit decorations for gifts this christmas, I see them at craft stores and craft fairs but they cost way to much money, I am sure I can make themself and was wondering if anyone here knew how to dry them.
I finally learned how to make those stuff animals that are...
I live in clovis - how far are you from me? I have a male pekin who has no wife and I think he might be lonely - since my other drake has a wife poor Afflac is kinda like the odd man out LOL

I am not a cold weather person - it is 79 today but the weather is going to take a turn this week some time - i am not looking forward to the snow - boyi am my chickens are ready for it.
Do chickens and ducks enjoy the snow?

I willadmit we got pretty lucky with our chickens - we built the coop in the run withthem around us and they were able to walk in it around it before it was finished- their frist night we had to kinda round them up and out them to bed ( get the rooster out of the tree LOl ) the next night some...
I have a friend who grows tomatoes and other veggies and when the plant starts to die she will bring out boxes of them for the flock, they love it and in turn i give her fresh eggs - its a win-win for us.
your kids look like they are having a great time

I got my first hen at easter - and was waiting what seemed like forever for her to lay for us, but while we were waiting my little lovebird thought she would show the hen how to do it and layed three of the tinest eggs I have seen, I opened them to find the cutes little yolks ever !!
was not...
normally they all get along fine, but some mornings Miss Peaches the Buff Rock will bulling some of them, I do make a small feeding area for my two little banty's but DH was not fast enough putting thier oatmeal down they started getting in the bowl to eat - I finally told him to put the bowl...
I have a flock with mostly standard girls but mixed in there is a banty hen and a roo - they were all raised together and get along fine, the banty's do sometimes get picked on by the bigger girls but nothing major.
here is my roo with one of his girls
this is most of the flock the buff girl...
now that i would love to see a head strong stubborn almost 3 legged goat shot a gun LOL I would pay money to see that !
I love the happy ending stories , I am amazed everyday when I see my Dixie running after the boxers playing and I am thankful for everyday I still have her. I only wishe the...
I think that is so awesome she is getting better and wanting to mate LOL
I had a dog that was badly hurt a few years ago by some idiots down the street everyone who saw her told me to put her to sleep, but I am hard headed and very stubborn I took her to two vets - she is now a very happy...
It is a sad thing when I go to the store to buy food for the house - the animals list is just as long as mine !! between the chickens,ducks,dogs,birds the grocery store is making more money than the whole pet store.
but I guess it is only fair - sooner or later they will start laying eggs.
Julie
they get layer feed all day, corn on really good mornings, and they get oatmeal every morning sometimes with fruit sometimes without it just depends on my cooking mood that morning LOL plus they get fresh veggies, bread , some leftovers from dinner - my girls ( and Clyde lol) are very spoiled...
I have 4 dogs and Dixie is the only mix I have - she is a beagle/bassett, but people raise beagles only see the beagle in her and people who raise bassetts see the bassett LOL
I love my mix flock of chickens this spring I hope to add a little more color to it with a few other breeds.
Julie
Going to be adding more things to the coop - the closer it gets to CHICKmas.
Yea thats my Clyde always has ALOT to say lol
out of the litter of puppies Dixie was the only one that had " birthmark" that's why we took her home, turns out she is a great girl.
