    Muscovies for 2015! Illinois area!

    I'd be interested in some hatching eggs next spring. I live in deep southern Illinois and I've had a lavender drake for several years but have never been able to find any other Muscovies in my area.

    Goose nesting problems

    Thus far, all is well. The mama goose is still laying eggs in her new nesting area and the other two are staying calm. The chickens get in her nest and wreck it (scratching up the straw) but it doesn't seem to bother the geese.

    Goose nesting problems

    I don't have an incubator. The mama goose isn't sitting yet- she's just laying eggs. We have eaten a few of the eggs, and they are good- like huge duck eggs. I am hoping once her nest is full enough she will sit on the eggs and raise some young. I really don't need the eggs, as our chickens and...

    Goose nesting problems

    Thank you for your reply and your helpful information; I appreciate it. Yesterday I did remove the eggs from the nest and disassembled her nest in that corner of the barn. I am hoping she will make herself a new nest in a better place. I am trying to persuade them to occupy the little barn; I...

    Goose nesting problems

    Hello everyone! We are new to raising geese, and I need some advice. We have 3 Production Toulouse that we have had for about a year. They were adults when they came to live with us here on our homestead, so I have no idea how old they are. One is larger than the other two, but I think we have 2...

    Looking for help with my 2012 flock planning

    Thank you for the replies and ideas. Cali Chick, I really have no reason for not wanting to try the Cornish X's other than I just don't like the looks of them; they look like genetic defects to me. I lean more towards the heritage breeds. As for rabbits, I love fried rabbit but in all honesty I...

    Looking for help with my 2012 flock planning

    Thank you both for your replies. I have decided that I will just buy a few pullets of each breed I am interested in and see how they work out. I really want to keep the flock small and easily manageable, so we will concentrate on eggs and just harvest a bird for special meals. It sure would be...

    Looking for help with my 2012 flock planning

    We have been chicken keepers for three years now. We have an urban homestead, and in all honesty a lot of the things we do are illegal (keeping chickens, using alternative water sources, etc.) but we live on 1/3 of an acre at the edge of town with no neighbors and good privacy fencing so we...

    "Wake up call" is too early- ideas for a simple rooster box?

    Our rooster is a great rooster. He is probably about a year old. We have had him for about six months. He is friendly, not aggressive towards us or the children at all (although he appears to be "interested" in my fluffy pink houseshoes if I happen to wear them out at let-out time in the...

    How to free range without fences or electrical wire UPDATED WITH PICS

    We use deer netting to make "boundaries" for our chickens. We live in a small town, and we have about 1 acre of land. Our chickens free range, and once they discovered our large garden they were in heaven. We have chain-link fencing around our main yard. which is where they live and it hasn't...

    Food & Water 24/7?

    Our chickens have food and water always available in their coop, which is a little barn. I use hanging ones, as it's less messy. Although they very seldom eat or drink in their barn (they free range in the backyard all day and also have food and water out there) we always make sure there is...
