The reason for this question is that I've had free rage chickens for years and have had hawks try to get my chickens but have never actually killed any of them,the rooster does a good job of alerting.
But since I've introduced some Guinea's to the flock I have lost 2 of them to hawks.
Any thoughts?
Thanks everyone for your help in trying to identify Lucy.
I want to find a Mate for her, What do you guys think would be a good type of drake to breed with her?
What I really want is ducks that lay alot of eggs!
Thanks!
I'm not sure what she weighs but I'm pretty sure she's a mix of at least 2 breeds, mainly because of the fact that I got her so cheap at an auction
Thanks for your input!
Thanks for the help, there is a good chance she is mixed I'm sure. As I said I got her at a poultry auction for 6 or 7 dollars and she is a better egg layer than my ausralorps!
She looks like a WB Buff orpington but she has a black bill and I have never seen a orpington with a black bill.
Do buff orpington ducks ever have black bills?
Thanks
Ok thanks,
She is lite tan over most of her body with a white/off white patch halfway down her neck to the top of her breast, her beak is black and has small black eyes, she lays a big white egg almost daily, and lately has been hiding it under the straw.
I know she is not a runner duck because...
Hi and thanks for reading, I bought a duck at auction and since I've had her she has been an amazing egg layer and has layed an egg everyday except 2 since 11/4/2011. I want to find out what breed she is so I can get some more like her.
I want to post some images of her but can't figure out how...
