Hi everyone!

[peachyduckies]

You're in for some fun now! What breeds of chicks, ducks and geese did you select?

Enjoy!

I ordered 3 female Dominique chicks, 3 female Salmon Faverolle chicks, 3 female Australorp chicks, 3 unsexed Fawn and white Runner ducklings, and 3 unsexed Toulouse goslings!

Hi and welcome to BYC We're so happy you've decided to join us
Your ducks and geese will need different starter feed than your chicks. They require more niacin and protein. A good game bird starter will do the trick. Also they need to be able get their whole bill into the water dish to flush their nostrils. New chicks can drown in water that deep so you'll want two brooders. Also be prepared for a watery mess. Baby water fowl are very messy, but they grow out of it as they get older. Best of luck on your adventure.

Hi! How are your new poultry friends doing? Are they all settled in? Have you posted pics somewhere? I might have missed them.
