Some of my 3yr old runners are having difficulty walking. They are kept in a large pen, and allowed to roam the yard for 30min-1hr mornings and evenings while I'm doing feeding/cleaning chores. For the past week or so I've noticed ducks tipping back on their tails and struggle to maintain...
I'm building an ark style tractor for our adult flock of delawares, marans and australorps. The roost and nest boxes are about almost 3 feet off the ground. Do I need to make a ramp up for them? I have seen them hop into the guinea coop, about 2' 6'' up. I'd rather not put one in as I move...
I've got 2 runner drakes, a black and a chocolate from Holderread's stock. They are almost 2 years old. I lost a few ducks and my flock is unbalanced, so these guys need a new home. Located near Raleigh, NC.
Margaret,
I have a small and young flock of cuckoo marans. I got hatching eggs on ebay that came from Sandhills birds. I've also got some eggs incubating from Iona on ncpoultry. They are from the Fitch lines.
Will you be at the Raleigh lunch/swap?
Look forward to meeting you there,
Pam
Being this is my first swap, I'm probably just looking ... well, maybe buying a few.
I want a few runner ducks to add to my flock if anyone has some, or knows of some.
I may have a few cuckoo marans pullets for sale.
