    sounds plenty big to me, but you may pose this question over in the Pigeon/Dove section. If you post it on my “Pigeon Talk” thread, there are lots of good, knowledgeable folks there. I’ve only had pigeons for about a year, so I’m still learning too.

    No, I think those are Jacobins. I have Satinettes, Classic Frills. I didn't care for the Jacobins when I first saw them, but they are growing on me. But until I get more room, I think I'll stick to what I have.

    So many choices! I have to agree with everyone so far. Ducklings are huge mess makers, but dang ducklings are so cute. :D I love my calls, small, easier on my duck math since they don’t take up as much room lol. They are decent layers when they lay, but seem to be seasonal layers and the girls...

    That very well could be an Easter duckling that someone got tired of. :(

    Mallards and rouens are similar. I can never remember, one has 2 eye stripes, the other has 1, but I always confuse them. Mallards are smaller, I believe. I wonder if she escaped from a predator and may be in a bit of shock. Ducks are not known to be so friendly, especially with strangers...

    You could try, but it would likely get eaten pretty quick. You could try to list it on CL? Beautiful girl. Have you seen any eggs? My oldest drake is in eclipse right now and looks female, but you said this one quacks, so I assume it really is a female? Drakes can’t fly while they are in...

    Oh lord, don’t get me started on my lost license fiasco. :barnie Too late... lol! Went to the dmv to get a replacement and was told that they needed my first divorce certificate and my new marriage license to “prove” who I am. I got divorced in 1998 for cripes sake! Remarried in ‘06. Like they...

    That was another part of my consideration. But I finally broke down and just ordered some plastic ones. Found some cheap on Amazon, didn’t realize they are coming from China and probably won’t get her before my chicks hatch! :lol:

    Have you had any issues with the paper cartons? I considered using the 30-egg cartons for my “test” cabinet run, but was a little worried about the paper. I set 51 chicken eggs last week. :hide

    :love Now I need some brown leghorns! :barnie (My CL rooster is going to lose his massive comb to frostbite. I’m actually hoping he does, so I don’t have to dub it)

    Oh and it may be easier to integrate if they can see each other for a while, but not be able to get at each other. If you could add a temporary separator?

    Pretty duck! I’m not sure on breed either, but it looks young. Poor thing, glad you took it in to nurse back to health. As far as the wing flapping, has it stopped? I kinda feel like it’s just trying to dry off underneath. Did it ever have access to swim water? If it was that nasty, swimming...

    :clap excellent tour. Seems to be coming along well. Congrats on electric!! I remember the day our electric was turned on at our farm camp house. Hubby sent me a pic of a 12-pack of beer in the fridge! :lol: The door knob was epic! :gig I can see that sun room being well used!

    I remember! :gig Love the duckies! I hope the ice has melted in my ducks pools. They sure miss the splashing and making a mess.

    The stubby bills, but also the short necks can make it tough for them to position correctly to zip. :love :love
