    cayuga duck thread

    One is slightly larger and they were sold as pure cayuga. They said they hatched Tuesday One likes to peep loudly while the other is much quieter. I just looked at the one with the line over its eye and noticed there is a slight patch of a lighter color under its chin too. I am thinking a throw...

    I breed blues. These are a few of them. I also have a lonely spangled hen. The only one to hatch from a dozen eggs shipped to me.

    cayuga duck thread

    I just got my first cayuga ducklings yesterday. I noticed one has a slightly lighter line across its head while the other one does not. Are they both Cayuga or is this a way to sex them? Or is one slightly older than the other and that line will show up later on. You can really see the line...

    She looks like a bbr. If both parents were black then one of your birds was an offspring of a bbr at some point in their genetic line and that is why you got her.

    Thanks and I am not sure. I think most are but it takes a breeder to usually have the best accuracy. I would ask someone who breeds them or just wait it out.

    I finally got an egg from my blue hen that I got last week. I checked last night and there were still no eggs. I came home from work today and found three!!! They look like the fawn chicks I have seen on the OEGB facebook page...

    He has a little brassy in him... But the hen is from a different line that the guy bred the brassy out of. So I should get 50% good blues and 50% eh colored. Granted It will be difficult to tell with the splash and blacks which has the correct color in them or the brassy one... SO I will prob do...

    Future Quail owner

    I live in York county and I have my quail in a chicken tractor style cage with a triangle design. If you raise the button quail and Coturnix quail together as chicks they should be able to live together nicely (with enough hiding places provided). I am not sure eating a button would be worth it...

    Depending where you are you could get guinea fowl. They are known to kill rodents and the sound they make drives them away as well. We had a vole problem last year and I would catch them stealing feed and leaving tunnels through the yard. I spilled some on the floor in the garage the other day...
