red Georgia clay!


we are turning the horse barn into a living space (not sure where we plan to house feed and such haha) so we are running utilities from the main house.

Cool!

Never seen clay so crumbly. We have red clay, but usually it's chunky.

Maybe just because it's been churned up by the ditchwitch blades. Because you're totally right- it's not usually crumbly like dirt. Its chunky like clay.

It could be that too.

@MGG, my silkie girls seem to be dwarfs. They both had a medium sized mother, but a bantam dad. The girls are still so tiny, & haven't grown much at all since the last Jelly Bean update. I'm not even sure if Dwarfism is dominant, or recessive.

For my pleasure yes, but for selling eggs, idk

How do you duck owners do it? Do you sell eggs? If so what kind? Who to, and how often? How many ducks to you have?

I sell eggs for eating to a local bakery. I only have 2 ducks, so I sell them whenever I get a half dozen or a dozen. I only have the two, but I'm getting 4 more girls soon. I have a Pekin hen, and she lays an egg a day. I'm getting two more Pekins, and two buff ducks.

What about chicken eggs? How do you sell those?

Lol. None of mine are laying yet. When they do start, I'll probably sell some to a bakery, and some to family and friends.

Someone woke up late!
