    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    Ah dang, I actually just had someone reply back to me last night wanting to pick them up! I'm sorry, I didn't even realize there were more replies on this thread. I'm not far from the Sam's Club, and I'm going to see if I can squeeze out a few more call babies this season. If not though, I'll be...

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    That's how mine are! Very quiet unless the feeder runs out. Then Guinevere, my white female, will scream at me until I refill it and give her some food too. She's precious and I love her.

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    I allow mine to free range in my fenced in backyard. I clipped one wing on each, and now that they know there's tons of food and forage here, they've shown no inclination of wanting to leave. They have an enclosure that I lock them in at night to protect them. They can definitely fly, and did...

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    That's exactly what a bunch of people have told me! That I'm too far to drive to. I have offered to meet them all halfway and they still turn me down. I'm not blaming them, gas is expensive and time is precious, it's just frustrating. I do really appreciate your input and help and everyone...

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    I appreciate all the help everyone, this is all good info to work off of. I guess I'll cut my (small) losses and sell for $10 each. Yesterday I offered them at $15 to a couple people who had asked, and they ghosted me, so I'll try reaching back out to them with $10 apiece and see how it goes. If...

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    I'm in Omaha, NE. Not a big city, but not tiny either. Lots of people with small hobby farms around and small flocks, though they're mostly an hour or more away.

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    I am in my local poultry buy/sell group, and I sold a previous ducking for $20, but it was 7 weeks old. I've only seen one other person selling calls, and it was an adult drake. He didn't get much interest from what I saw.

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    Darn, that's how much I had been considering for these guys... I see purebred day-old ones from the big hatcheries are $9 each. As you surely know, these guys are hard to hatch! I've only been getting 2-3 per dozen even with humidity and temp carefully controlled. I don't want to sell them for...

    Appropriate pricing for Call Ducks

    Hi all, After a lot of work, I have hatched a few call ducklings from my small flock. These three are now just over 3 weeks old, and I am not sure what an appropriate asking price would be. They are pet quality, but are certainly pure call ducks. Do any of you know what others charge at each age...

    The rehoming a rooster thread

    Location: Omaha, NE Breed: Silkie Age:20 weeks Size: Small I have a 20 week old black silkie rooster, very docile, in Omaha, NE. He doesn't peck and is fine with being handled. There's nothing wrong with him, it's just that our area is not zoned for roosters.

    HELP backyard ducks in eastern Nebraska

    Actually, you might have more luck IN the city - I live in South Omaha, and both chickens and ducks are allowed as long as you get a permit (which is free and easy). When I got my chickens, I just called the Health Department, and an inspector came out to make sure it was a big enough coop...

    Omaha, NE - Juvenile Black Silkie Rooster

    Hello! I have a 20-week-old black Silkie rooster that needs a loving home. He is very docile, does not peck, and tolerates being picked up and held. He has not started crowing yet.
