I ordered the Great Goose Group from McMurray Hatchery. They arrived last week in perfect condition. McMurray does not keep track of the breeds that it sends you, however, if you order an assortment. Wondering if anybody can identify what breeds I have. (supposed to be 3 different types)

I want them to go inside at night because of predators. My duck run is secure but because it is so large, I had to use netting for the top which is NOT secure. I had to build a temporary pen for nighttime with a metal roof, sides etc inside the big run just for safety...and I can lure them...

Thanks for the advice...I was wondering if putting a couple of chickens in the run with the ducks would help...this ramp I have is NOT very steep and it is maybe 3 ft. long. Chickens seem to be more inquisitive than my ducks. What type of treats do you use besides cracked corn? My ducks are...

I am new to ducks but have had chickens. This summer I sectioned off a part of a barn building to use as a duck coop. I cut the entry door (made one for people and one for the ducks). I built a duck run and made it predator proof and covered it, etc. The only negative is that to access the...

Very nice job. I like your coop!

WOW, I am a stain glass artist and I have several windows that I have put into storage. I decided to use one for my coop and it should be done tomorrow..so cool you are using stain glass windows too. Now this week I have to make the covered run.

Looks great and gets me inspired. My coop (with a large stain glass window) will be done tomorrow and I am going to be working all week on a run.

That looks like a nice spot. It is so green.

Hi, I live in Chino Valley, Arizona. I am in the process of building a new 8 X 10 coup and run. I currently have part of my well house that is used for my current coup but I want to give the girls a much larger space and run. I show dogs and also own 5 horses. I am retired and just enjoying...

I should add that I live in a pretty moderate climate so we dont ever get too cold at night and my coop is part of a well house so it stays fairly warm in there even with the little coop door open.

I have never really closed my chickens in at night. They just go inside the coop by themselves in the evening but the door is always open. Does anybody else do this? I have a predator proof run. Thanks.

Anybody using solar to power vent fans or lighting? Just wondering which system works best. Thanks.
