Pretty birds. I'll show her these pics and see what she wants to do. They'll be the owners ducks so it's up to her. Thank you for posting.[COLOR=141823]I have a young pair of bonded ducks. She is a Pekin and he is a White crested. The only reason I am looking to re-home them is I have chosen to breed ducks on the watch/endangered lists. Her name is Ducky Moe moe and he is Fluffy. We purchased them in April. She should start laying soon. $35- pair. (must go together, they are bonded)[/COLOR]
.Let me know if any of you want a pretty white pair of duckies.
I like the chairs. Love the oil cloth. You might try a small hand held sander with very fine grit sandpaper.It probably was a red-tailed hawk. They are the biggest around here, I'm pretty sure. They are beautiful, and I would hate to kill one. Wildlife is too important to keep around! We have a Cooper's Hawk that tries to catch wild quail in our yard. He doesn't seem interested in the big chickens. I just put the littles out in a new coop (super deal on craigslist!!!), but they are covered, and I bring them in the shed at night in their box. While I was collecting them at dusk the other day there was a massive great horned owl sitting in the Palo Verde tree above the coop. Same night a pack of coyotes started whooping (don't know what else to call it) either in our yard or the neighbors. I ran out in my tank and undies and bare feet to run them off. Glad it was 3:30 AM so the neighbors couldn't see me! I didn't see how many there were as they ran off before my eyes had a chance to adjust to darkness. From last week, here is a paw print of the predator that took away one chicken (Crannie, my fave.) and Pepito, the duck:Another view:
What do you think of the chair I'm refinishing (4 to go!):
I wanted to make the spots I distressed more worn and polished looking, but even with using fine grit sandpaper, they are still scratchy looking. The upholstery is waxed cloth. I think that's what you call it. It might be too sticky/hot in the AZ environment, but I can always change it. Any suggestions for tools to make the distressing look more natural?
Thank you I think they are beautiful too but have decided to focus on breeds that need help. H is a very good drake with his hens but does not like other drakes near his girls. he keeps watch over them really well.

Not sure about the others, but Murray McMurray is listing White Faced Black Spanish for January and February delivery dates. They also list crevecouers and golden campines.
No suggestions, looks nice..It probably was a red-tailed hawk. They are the biggest around here, I'm pretty sure. They are beautiful, and I would hate to kill one.
