Our sweet female Blue Swedish lost her companion and is lonely. She needs to be around other ducks. Trying to find a new home for her. We're in the Seattle area.

We just built this handy dandy little brooder for ducklings and seek recommendations for bedding. We used old towels in our bathtub the last time we ordered ducklings and the smell was, shall we say scintillating. So, outside we go, but we don't want to mess with towels again. Our best idea...

The movie about the girl who helps geese fly home is called "Fly Away Home" and also has flying footage. The plot is kind of hokey, but its heart is in the right place--totally worth watching for the birds!

There was feature-length film that came out in 2001 called "Winged Migration." If you liked this video, check out the movie!!!

What kind of 4' fencing did you use?

Don't mess with a gander unless you know what you are doing and what you want from the situation. Females get along great without hormonal discord. We've got 3 females and they are very harmonious.

Could it be he is depressed, being a lone goose? How about getting him another goose to talk goose with?

We are taking lots of photos, but I don't have any connections with the powers that be on this website.

Our chickens, ducks and geese are used to seeing each other through fencing but have never intermingled. We'll experiment with mixing flocks once the new coop is done.

It's 900 square feet--about 10 yards by 10 yards. We've got 12 chickens, 6 ducks and 3 geese at the moment. We'll add more ducks and chickens. You can see the potential for chicken math with so much room.:D

We'd like to share photographic progress on our poultry coop. Photo 1 is the south side, taken from the walk in front of our house. Photo 2 shows roof progress from the inside. Photo 3 is shot from the northwest. Photo 4 is shot from the northeast. You can start to see the indoor/outdoor...

We have 3 Toulouse geese who we want to give names to, so we want to tell them apart. We thought about putting different color string necklaces on them--something loose-fitting that can't restrict breathing or other movement. Any thoughts?

Hey, we'd love some ideas for treats to give our geese. What do your geese go bonkers, um I mean honkers for? Thanks!

Don't share with the world? Sorry, but this is misguided. I don't inundate the world with my flock, but every once in a while, everybody LOVES photos and reports. If you don't share your poultry joy, others may not themselves become afflicted. :ya

Hey, would you mind attaching a photo of this? Thanks!

Okay, I gotta weigh in on this. Using your fingers to peck birds can work, but holding them down or carrying them around until they 'submit' doesn't. Sorry, but these are not things chickens can or would do and won't translate in a meaningful way to your birds. You have to think like a...

We sell a dozen for $8--both chicken and duck eggs. We only sell to friends and business clients and could easily charge the general public $10-12. In addition to organic grains, our poultry are fed a wide variety of organic produce and leftovers from our organic kitchen and the eggs show it...

I wash duck and chicken eggs with a luffa under warm tap-water and stick them in the fridge. We sell eggs to our business clients ($8 a doz.), and if someone requests non-refrigerated eggs to take hiking or camping, then I'll stick unwashed eggs in a carton.

Those with wasteful birds can try withholding food for a day--it's likely they will forage for the crumbs!

Our chickens go nuts with straw--we just open a bale in their run and they are captivated for hours.
