I am having the WORST luck with duck eggs this year... I hope when my hubby makes his freezer incubator it works out better for me. This last set of duck eggs all died on lockdown. Plus, I think all of my ducks are molting cause they haven't given me any eggs since the last week before hatch day.

I wound up with brahmas for my first flock purely by accident. I had been exploring craigslist and found a free flock of 3 yr old brahmas that I snatched right up after I did some quick research. There were three dark hens, one buff hen, and two light roos. As soon as I saw them up close, I fell...

Aww, they're freakin adorable. :D I need to take pics of my little survivor.

Coolness, thank you for being so welcoming. I had also been looking into the green egg layers like the Araucanas, Amauracanas, and Easter Eggers; are they hard to keep? Lol, I'm an artist so the idea of colored eggs from chickens enticed me

Hey, I'm new to raising backyard farm animals and I figured this would be the best place to find the information I'm looking for. I'm in Hardin County Ohio and it's pretty much flat, drained marshland out here. I just got a property this summer and we're going to attempt to raise chickens and...
