    What breed are my new ducklings?

    I can look at a baby chick and pretty much guess what it is, so I was hoping some of you duck savvy folks would know what I have here? Got them at Tractor Supply.

    Cream Legbar chick.. Hen or roo?

    I just bought a female Welsh Harlequin today. I don't know much about ducks, but the seller said they are worth $150. But when I did some research when I got home, I'm finding out they aren't all that expensive. I only paid $15, but I'm curious if anyone else has heard of this price? Here are...

    Do you sing to your eggies?

    Lol! I have to admit, I'm a little obsessed. I have a single chirpier in my incubator that fell silent so I started singing to it. I got a chirpy response! :D

    Installed our timed lighting system yesterday!

    Our hens completely stopped laying. They aren't generally winter layers so it didn't surprise me. I read a few threads on here about timed lighting in the early morning and thought I'd give it a try. Our lighting system goes on at 4am and off at 8am. I know it may work better if I slowly get it...

    1 year old cream legbar has never laid an egg!

    I have a Cream Legbar hen that I got from a reputable breeder. All the other hens that hatched alongside mine were laying when I bought her 7 months ago.
