Dixie Chicks

Wow! 12 pages to read! Sucks I woke up new years day with a pounding headache and a broke phone so I can't keep updated at work. My favorite pickled eggs is just putting them in cherry pepper brine after eating the peppers. I can't seem to peel fresh boiled eggs either, and I've tried many ways. Someone suggest poking a hole in the air pocket side and it loosens the shell, have to try it. deb, I took three years of Spanish in highschool and tried flan a few times, it is super delicious.
Someone asked about good laying ducks, Khaki Cambells lay more eggs than any chicken. I had one, and then a Campbell/Mallard cross that was a super good setter. One time she hatched out 22 ducklings.
sorry to hear you havent felt well that sucks.. and on top of that phone broken thats mega sucky.. what kinda ducks you have now?
 
what kinda ducks you have now?

I had way too many at one point, campbells and mallards and pekins and then crosses. Advertised them for free on Craigslist and got rid of many of them within two hours! The rest every time they started sitting got ate. And what drakes I had left got ate that winter by a mink I think.
When I get some again I want just mallards, they are smarter living free range semi wild, Pekins are big and meaty, and I do like duck but I just want some living in my pond.

would love to see some pictures :)
 
well, thats not so easy to do can see it right when they got out of the egg and are all wet.. one doesnt even have feathers yet and most are so fuzzy and stretching out their itty bitty wing is gr lol

Believe me they start growing wing feathers pretty quickly.... you will see them soon if not already.... But like I said it only works within the first few days to a week....

Its good to handle them and spread their little wings out to inspect any way... Good practice.
