Call Ducks or Bantams...Crazy Animals Around the Farm

[Amer]

My Ducks want out but the Wild Mallards are here to get my Hens..

I want to see the babies...

I wonder what a white ameraucana would look like crossed with a blue and a blue splash ameraucana’s offspring would look like. And now I have more silkies to experiment with crossing colors with.

What babies? My new ones I just hatched? Or my big Ducks?

Ooo. That's a very good question. White is a tricky color.

Yup. Not that I would let my own birds breed with any mallards in the many enormous puddles they've discovered.
But I'm still curious of course. I love experiments.

Oh....I won't be letting that happen

It's two Drakes waddling around in my pasture..

I think my Brahma mix hen is broody. How bad would it be to let her set Fran’s Duck eggs from this week I wonder?

Welp, that's ok! However, my motto with poultry is that there's no wrong theory or idea as long as it's supported by research, exploration, investigation, and well-documented experimentation of course!
I love learning new things even if it means having to lower myself to *shudder* cross my Ameraucanas with other breeds!

But my Calls are kind of sacred too.
