I just found a stash of hidden eggs from my single welsh harlie, 9 total. No clue how long they've been there but they are the first eggs I've seen from her at a year old. (Our yard is not large so she can't have hidden them elsewhere, I looked) How do I know if they are okay to eat? No bad...
Hiya kids. I'm interested in raising a few scovies for meat but I don't think I can deal with processing by myself - that and my property is low-walled with vegetarian neighbors that have little kids, lol! Would rather not have them witness the event, know what I mean? I'd like to find someone...
hey kids! I want to order a pair of ducklings and shipping just two from Metzers is too pricey. Anyone want to go in on a small order? I'm in Garden Grove and you can pick you duckies up at my place. Pm me! I'd like to do this pretty soon.
This was handmade by a single student of animation and art. It haunted me for hours after I watched it and IMO it needs more exposure. Beautiful, heartfelt and sad. Watch with sound on and tissues handy.

Does anyone here enjoy/collect Native American art? I don't mean the clique 3-wolf type stuff, but art that's more authentic and has some real effort, love and respect for the culture put into building it. Stuff that is handmade with bone beads, deer antler, bison teeth, pelts, handwoven with...
If I have a duck processed today (at 10 am or so) will it keep in the fridge until tomorrow afternoon? Or should it be frozen and taken out to thaw tomorrow morning?
OBO. 10 week old female Pekin available, pretty tame with people but you must earn her trust with treats. Local pickup only. This is a pet and egg producer, not a meat bird! Her name is Affy..short for Aflac. ;p
In your experience do they socialize well with people if they imprint on a person by 1-2 days of age? I don't expect them to be as sociable as pekins but enough that I can interact with and enjoy them. We also have yard bbq's with friends every month so my chosen ducks shouldn't be overly...
Crested white or runner? They'll spend a lot of time outdoors when we're not home but will spend the rest of the time indoors (with diapers) as house pets. I do want eggs too...so which should I choose? It will join my pekin.
Hey fellow peepers! I'm in Garden Grove, Orange County and I'm thinking of getting a second duck as companion for my Pekin gal. I want a crested, methinks (I just love the elvis hair heheh)and I do want a very young sexed duckling for imprinting to make a good pet. I want eggs and thus...
How tall on average is an adult pekin? I can find plenty of info on weight but not height :p Ya think a 24 inch tall pen is ok for nighttime and when we aren't home? I have a choice between that or 42 inch. Big price diff of course.
Hey peepers! I'm new here and mom to a 3 week old fawn runner and pekin, gender still unknown. Does anyone know of a duck pen manufacturer in Southern California? I don't have the skills, tools and know-how to build a good pen myself. :p Would love to find someone who would come build one on my...
