Yeah their first timers. I just though if i put a pen around them with food and water in there it would be safe. But if its easier to move them once hatched ill do that. Just worried the geese will attack them :( how many days do ducks take?
Hi all
Hoping someone can gsive me some advice. I have chooks ducks and geese they all share a pen. I let them free range as much as possible but its hard with day time foxes being a problem :(
My 2 female ducks are sitting on nests in the pen and i want to build something around them so when...
They are Pilgrim x Chinese I think. I never thought of the fact a person could fit through. It should be pleanty I measured the width of my laptop screen and can kind of imagine them standing there ha. Thabks guys I just don't want it to be too small again
Does anyone here have geese of any breed I know they vary. I got an automatic chook door which is too narrow for the geese we are making it bigger I just can't find out how wide the average goose is and I can't get close enough to mine I've estimated 42 cm
