AmeraucanaHank's Flock!

[AmeraucanaHank]

I bought a giant pool for the duck a couple days ago and today it came!
They are have the best time of their lives!

Update:
Ducks:
Jimmy one of my Khaki Campbell drakes died a few hours ago not sure how it happened I just found him in the new pool dead. I emptied it, should I fill it back up? Any advice would be awesome.
And I cleaned out there pen and set up a little coop for them to lay eggs in with a sign I woodburned:

And I think that's it for the ducks, I will make an update with more recent pictures soon.

And the chickens:
We have now been getting more eggs! Around 3 -4 eggs a day, Here are the ones I'm pretty sure are laying (there may be more though )
Fluffs:

(Fluffs lays dark brown eggs, with the occasional freckle that I just love!)
Primavera:

(her eggs are as blue as she is!)
Grace started back up again from her break that lasted about 4 months:

(she lays blue)
Georgina: ( I don't have a good recent picture of here) She lays small cream eggs.
and
Cleopatra:

That's 1/16/2023 update I hope you enjoyed!

Beautiful girls! Congrats on the extra eggs! Thanks for sharing!

So sorry about your duck. You might want to wash the pool out before refilling it, especially if he had been in there for awhile.

Yes I did do that.

Fluffs has lately been having respiratory issues so I made her some thyme and sage sinus tea it seems to be working great!

Sorry about the respiratory issues, but I'm glad to see you having something that works!

Ok so now we are getting white a few eggs a day (7-9) a day and got my first duck egg since October! Also I am going to be selling and shipping hatching eggs. If you're interested pm me!



Also my chickens have lice again. If anyone knows a way to keep wild birds out of coops then please share.

Congrats on the eggs! Sorry about the lice though. Have you tried a covered run yet? (That sometimes helps, but I've still had wild birds in the runs somehow.)

I wouldn't want to (or have the money) to build a covered run

My duckling/gosling order was canceled. And now I I'm just getting 10 ducklings (geese just wouldn't work out for us right now. )
