My indecisive self has decided to just keep my chickens. And go for ducks later on. :oops: I much enjoy my chickens, and I’m not nearly as experienced with ducks. I know my chooks, and I’m happy about that. :caf

I guess my new goal is this:
  • Quail - pushed back to March, as of now.
  • Silkies! I’m going to hopefully get my small flock of just silkies started. I’m going to purchase a few more, of the same varieties so I can breed pure colors.
  • Lavender OEGBs, I have a pair. I want to hatch chicks from them sometime, but that’s likely in the distant future. :)
:woot:woot

My Goal is:
  • Save up for a bigger chicken coop and get it built or build it ourselves. Probably won't get it built this year but if it happens then ill be happy.
  • Try let my chickens out daily for a free range when im home. The foxes have been dealt with but im still too scared.
  • I want to sell my first carton of eggs.
  • Sort out if I want this Cockerel or not.
So thats my goals. Pretty simple but.

I'm not sure which is worse, the fox or the coyote, the latter stay completely out of sight, but I've seen more than one fox bolt out of the bush, grab a chicken and keep on going. I had already decided that next time I see it, I'll sacrifice the chicken to end the fox. Then plan B came to reality, trust me with lots of challenges. A friend of DW has to move from the farm to an apartment. She re-homed all of her birds and her LGD was miserable. So free to a good home. So now we have Todd. Almost two years old, a Great Pyrenees mix, at about 85 pounds. He's been taught a LOT of bad habits, and allowed to chase cars. And he has huge issues with the pigs. But his first day on the job, he chased off a nest of raccoons, then he killed a couple opossums, and the fox and coyotes have moved to the other side of the mountain. So I'm calling this a win. Fox 2: Me 1. I'll take it.
