Oh, wow...... just wow..... you GOTTA get some ducks! I won't try to convince you to get Cayugas just because that's what I have, but... they'd sure be pretty in the sunlight, and they wouldn't be big, glaring white targets for aerial predators. *humming sweetly to self*

I am so seriously envious of your new situation I can taste it.

Looks great!

Keep up the good work.

Man now I see why you all in Cali. have so many wildfires. Gosh it dont look like that ground has seen rain in years. Dont let anyone throw a cigarette down, that field would go up in flames so fast....

By this time next week that whole field will be green irrigated pasture. It is being trenched and irrigation piped laid as we speak. I am so excited.

Nope, sorry, she's gonna get Silver Appleyards.

I read about them in Backyard Poultry and they are so pretty! I want some, but don't have anyplace for ducks.

Now I'm totally jealous! Irrigated pasture? Perfect. We don't have access to ditch water, so no pasture here.

FnkyFrm......yes we are bone dry here during the summer, so that's why we have the really bad fires here. The way you see the ground in the pics is normal for this area. (and we had a REALLY wet winter)

It's official...we're rednecks. My husband just left for the new house with a U-Haul full of chickens!

Awesome! Love seeing this come together. What town is it near? Sounds like you are on Highway 49 area near Auburn?
Love it!

Yep, in the unincorporated area of Placer County just two miles outside the Auburn city limits, just a couple miles off Hwy 49.
