Hello :)

Hello everyone, I am new to Back Yard Chickens but have owned chickens for about three years now, and have a total of seven lovely hens that are in the Americana, Barred Rock, cuckoo maran, rhode island red, and a white leghorn breeds. Aside from chickens our other pets consist of four horses, two cats, one dog, two quail and one male khaki Campbell duckling. I do not think I would as happy of a person if I could not be surrounded by animals especially my chickens As for my work I currently am in the in home health care field but that might soon change since I am looking into going back to school within the next year to get a veterinarians degree.
Thanks, I look forward to leaning with you all,
Nikki

Welcome Nikki! I feel the same way you do...my animals make me happy and content. Can't imagine a life without them. This site is great for the beginners, as well as the novice. I have learned so much. Glad to have you aboard

The little male duckling will grow up to harass your hens unless you get him a woman of his own kind. Maybe a little girl duckling that loves water sports and waddling in the rain.

Defiantly someday a little lady duck for this fella, but for now we are just trying to raise him to be a healthy happy duck. We have only had him for one week and can tell he is most defiantly all boy Thanks for all the welcomes all.
