Now I just have my two geese, a muscovy duck that leads a charmed life, Bubba the RIR rooster who was my ORIGINAL chicken, and ONE lonely quail chick. Oh and some guinea eggs in the incubator but they will be sold most likely. Thankfully, we've moving soon, and the area isn't as wooded and I'll be building Fort Knox and starting over.
