Call Ducks Finally Hatched

[clousert]

I'll post them on the farm and garden site up here. Do you have pictures/price?

Yeah see I thought that too but the inspector said no. That they had the same requirements. (He also thought my grey calls were mallards). I'm pretty sure that the larger breed ducks are supposed to be 100sq ft for 4, increase 25% per extra bird.

We are making a 100ft by 16ft run so not sure how many that covers? Then later I'll probably add other stuff as we go along. The pen the calls are in is like a freakin fortress. It also was about $600 in materials ha. That is going to be decreased by A LOT. Will be ordering bird netting instead of using 2x4 wiring for the top.

Oh and I found your Craigslist ad, I'll copy the info and post it on the farm and garden for Sanford. If anyone is interested we can do a little swap in cocoa via Vera or something if you want. I go to pretty much every auction and I have to take the chicks to Vera when they hatch so they'd just be hitching a ride.

LOL. If each quad has to have 100 sq ft and you're making it 100 x 16 then it covers 16 quads. So 64 duckies lol.

Thanks for the extra post. Can definitely work out something if someone is interested.

Ok I have to get off here and go get to work on the new chicken coops lol

Oh haha yes I guess you are right. Maybe if I used my brain every once in a while, LOL.

A fb friend of mine wants some of your call ducks. She's in harmony which I am pretty sure is closer to you. I'll give her your number so she can get ahold of you.

Sounds great. I'm actually looking to go out to Harmony possibly today but if not then sometime within the next week.

Well I won't be getting the magpie call ducks :/

So far she's hatched out several and her kids "love" each one. So I just told her to send me hatching eggs.

Of course kids are going to "love" all that's cute and fuzzy. Who wouldn't lol

Spoke to her tonight. She wanted to come tomorrow but I have to work during the day and I guess the evenings aren't good for her. She said she would see about possibly coming this weekend but for some reason it didn't sound too promising to me. Maybe that's just me though. I'll let you know if I hear from her later in the week.

Exactly. It was the third time she said one of her kids liked one or the other. So clearly it's just better to get eggs. She's had magpies in every hatch so hopefully if I ordered a couple dozen eggs I'll get some magpies.

Ugh I know what you mean, hopefully she's not just screwing around and wasting your time, I thought it was weird that she wanted 3 drakes. I'll keep the ads up.

Sooooo, I got my FIRST call duck egg today!!!!!! Yippee!!! Do I bring it inside or is it OK to leave it until tomorrow at least to see if I get another one??? Can't wait to see if they are fertile!! It's either from my grey pair or my blue fawn pair, or the east indie hen!!!
