    how long will freshly butchered meat keep in the fridge?

    Hi! I was wondering how long freshly butchered meat lasts in the fridge. We're going to be offering some ducks for sale but I'm not sure if I should go ahead and freeze them or if I can keep them fresh.

    1mo old duckling died

    Duckling not dead after all!!! I guess he had just passes out. He still can't stand up and is just lying on his side. When I come near he freaks out and spins himself in a circle still on his side. I put a bowl of warm water next to him. Not sure what else to do.

    1mo old duckling died

    The ducks and geese are huge and have been free ranging for a while now. I think you're right about the feed. It is only a few weeks old but aside from living in the same place its the only thing I can think of. Oh btw they are around 1.5 /2 months old.

    Pale bills

    They are pekings. We have 7 ordered 5. 2 of them have very pale bills but their feet are a normal orange color. Is that common with the sign you mentioned? Will they survive?

Since I'm giving no possible reasons i'll say how they're kept. There is a fake pond from a baby pool. They're. Not getting in yet but are drinking from it...

    We just received10 goslings in the mail. I'm basically doing with them what we did with our chickens. We also received 10 ducklings... in case anyone is on both boards. I'm wondering what to do with the goslings. Are there any good books on waterfowl? Thanks!
