Wow, I hadn't watched any tv today and just found out from this thread. Thanks for posting. He will be missed.

oh jeez, i read 7 pages now for naught. was hoping by the time i got to the end therda been a pic posted. maybe she busy so lets give her till Saturday at high noon to get some up. after that we get a posse together.

Mandarins are way cool looking as well. I would have loved to have gotten them also. I mainly got the black east indies to be a contrast to the white crested ducks. Figured they might look cute together swimming around in the pond. I know one thing for sure... too many ducks make a big mess fast.

Nice. I like Marty's intro.

from what i understand here at our local auctions you sell the cages with the birds so poeple make cheap cages for the birds cuz the buyer gets cage and all for the money. good luck and hope it works out.

Well I finally found the cord to the camera and I'll start posting more pics. I believe the pics were taken the evening they arrived from the post office. 2 died in shipping but the 8 I have left are doing wonderful. I put them in a new house today so they can be outside. If I remember...

I would love to post some pics, but they seem to be having an awful time getting the things to hatch out. It has been 2 times now that they have had a bad hatch and not been able to send them to me. They were supposed to get here today and I called and they said .... oh sorry, the hatch didn't...

I am using 60 watt light bulbs, just standard cheap wal mart bulbs in 2 different brooders. They are in those cheap aluminum round light things. Like 9 bux each. In one box i have 21 white crested ducks and the box is 4ft by 4 ft by 2ft high. The first week i had them in there i had the light...

I happen to have access to a hardwood sawmill and was wondering if the hardwood sawdust would be ok. The pine shavings I have been having to buy and I could get the hardwood sawdust for free.

I will put it in a widemouth quart mason jar tonight and also, where might I find brewers yeast. I live in a dry county and the surrounding counties are all dry as well. Is it something used for other things as well that a small town grocer might have? Is there something else that might work...

I loved that pic so much it is now my desktop wallpaper. Thanks for the awesome F0T0.! tp

I feed them Dumor Chick Starter/Grower 20%. Does not say medicated anywhere on the bag. They would have to tell you if it was medicated right?

OH JEEZ... Ive never seen one of those before. If there ever was a pretty slug, that would fit the bill.

On Wednesday I received 21 white crested ducks. Ordered 20, and it seems 1 of them is having a hard time. Ever since I took them out of the box this one seems to have a hard time staying on his feet. I at first thought it might just be shock from travel and since he was taking in plenty of water...

I'm not real sure yet, they are both pretty far away and right now we have 2 bottle feeding kids that are 10 days old, and 2 more that were born 4 days ago to a mother who only has one working tit. They all seem to be doing real well and the 2 we have with the mom seem to be doing great...

They will all be day old chicks from Meyer Hatchery. I don't have anything but goats and hatching eggs atm, but ive got big plans. Real good to know I only have to build two coops for now. I am going to build one for the ducks down by the pond and one for the chickens back behind the house in...

I have 20 white crested and 9 black east indies ducks on order. It says the white crested are a medium size duck and that the black east indies are a bantam sized duck. I had planned on housing them together. Will this be ok? Does anyone else have this kinda situation that can maybe relieve my...

nice. I agree about the names of things for the most part. The goats all get named apparently because Connie just doesn't see them as meat goats lol. (and there just so darn cute it is kinda difficult to see butchering them) I don't mind killing things to eat, I just have to not think about...

I started with 29 white eggs (unknown variety) given to me by an Amish friend who had some extra from his own stock, and 12 large brown eggs from another Amishman from his farm. I also have 20 white crested ducks and 9 black east indies ducks on order from Meyer hatchery due the following week...

Thanks.... I dont know whether to be jumping for joy or to pull my hair out. May 10th is the due date of my first hatch. I'll play it by ear and see how they look by then and find out the times and such. Thanks for letting me know about it.
