Any one in the Rochester area have duck eggs for sale today? I'm headed out there traveling east on 90 today and my ducks are done laying.

I looked around at the fair poultry building. I didn't see all the breeds I wanted to, man is that place huge! I should have looked down one more isle so I could compare the 1st place cayuga duck from the lady close by with the ones I got last time. It would be nice to see the size/stature...

I think it would be nice to have a map page for people who don't mind to post their location and be able to find other members close to them. No addresses though just a link to pm them from the forum. I enjoy the MN page here, but does anyone know how to program something like that? It's awful...

Glad I'm not the only one to think these are the prettiest ducks around! I will totally vouch for Ewerts Country Waterfowl in Arlington, MN. Even though it's hard to find their phone number (I can pm it to you) I was referred to them from the forums, they ship ducklings. And my birds were...

That is a very nice dog house! I have one but it's smaller and would not be convenient for cleaning or collecting eggs. Don't know what to do with it other than if we get a dog. Maybe we could raise it and use some hardware cloth to keep bunnies in. I don't normally complain about the weather...

So cute! I got ducks last week, so exciting! But the crazy wind blew the roof the off the coop and they were gone, our neighbor called and told us there were some black ducks under their truck. Now we only have 2. I'm so tired of this weather. Cold crazy wind, freezing on May 1! I wish we could...

I was in Rochester Friday and my sister's friend made a call to have a wild Roo picked up! Can't say I know how to calm him down, but I love this little commentary on how to avoid becoming your roosters adversary! My new mantra: I am not a chicken. Rooster rules do not apply to me. If we...

How do you get ahold of him? Do you just call him up, or is there email/website? We go up that way sometimes.

Quote: It was alright. I thought the prices were waay too high for grown animals unless you're buying pets or projects. No baby ducklings No baby anything really. Tons of variety though. There were some pheasant eggs, quail, pigeons, peafowl, ducks, rabbits, chickens, and that's just the...

We're going to Jackson for the exotic animal sale. I'm hoping to pick up some ducklings and peacock feathers, or just see all the animals with the kiddos. Would probably go to the ones in New Ulm or New Prague, but they are pretty far away for a few ducklings. http://www.tklivestock4u.com/id45.html

My dad is in Wabasha and friends with a chicken keeper... Do you know Oscar? I'm guessing there's not a lot of Oscars.

They will do just fine. We have cold tolerant breeds and no insulation in our old barn. One corner of the barn has been boarded off on the floor and sides to prevent drafts and the only heater is for their water can. If you have a well insulated little coop for in town with some ventilation, it...

Do you sell chicken butt cones too? I have a wimpy australorp who never quite fit in. She's the only one without tail feathers. I just pulled her out of the big group and stuck her in with some adolescent birds. Hoping all goes well for a little while. What do you do for that? Especially when...

We put a heated waterer in the coop and no lights. Our coop is not even insulated, it's inside a very drafty old barn. I choose breeds that are cold hardy, and they really are! Only a few little knobs on the Dominique's comb got frost bit and fell off. After a bit you couldn't tell anything...

Super excited!I'm glad to hear that they can all be kept together! I went to my "local" Tractor store today and saw an incubator for $42. If that's the case I want to get one of those and hatch our own eggs!! Then I could just call upon one of these Southern Minnesota people and buy some duck...

Welcome! How do you keep chickens and ducks together? Since they were chicks? I'd love to get ducks, but I'm worried about housing and the minimum order. Do they need their own place? I'm in the south central area of MN, and would love to hear from you. Wegs 813 you must be an hour east of us...

Wow thanks for that article. I went to school in Mankato and I think very highly of people wanting to have chickens in town. They have been battling off and on for years, a friend of mine has an aunt that has been trying to get it approved for years. Both Rochester and Minneapolis have city...

We have cold hardy birds in an old (very old) barn. There is no insulation, only some extra boards to keep the critters from helping themselves to our meal. It was a very cold winter this year and our first winter with chickens. The roosters had a tiny bit of frost bite on their combs, but not...

I only saw about 5 members from southern MN, we are down here in Blue Earth where I 90 and Hwy 169 meet. Maybe I should check out Iowa's page. Anyway, I grew up in Hudson and my parents live there so if there's ever some kind of meet please let me know. They love to see the grandsons, and I love...
