Camp, Twist what color is Kelly? He was supposed to be white but he has some barring it looks like. Or do I need to wait until he feathers out more? He is the least feathered in.

did or have you found that duck poo sets like cement ??? much worse IMHO then chickens
probably because it goes down wet and can really adhere to everything before drying

lol I was kinda hoping for a white one. The one behind him is supposed to be blue and white but yeah she’s not.

Trade! I always have so many white ones. I wish some had been lavender like the mom, but I’m happy with so many wild types.

Sometimes it hurts more to keep them alive, right?

I move their pen about every 5 days. But haven’t noticed too much of poo cement. Mainly it’s in the coop part where they sleep. I just tossed more bedding on top

I’ll message her. Thanks Twist!

I would would trade with you! The lavender is very pretty, what dark/wild and white ratio did you end up with in this batch?

Looks like 4 white, 3 with brown faces, and 4 wild type.
