Oh good. I was worried about Claw. She is a bit high strung. She has held her own
with some mean hens with her disability. Even though her feet are deformed she
can still roost and scratch fine.



I'm excited about the ducks too. http://www.jmhatchery.com/White-Muscovy-Ducks-p4.html

Next time we'll order 100 and build a few PVC tractors for them. I'm designing
one now I can use to raise birds in and use as a greenhouse too.

I am about 30 min. from MtHealthy and I use to buy many hundreds. Alway good luck with their chicks and duckling.

From what I know geese are bigger, take longer to grow, and are more greasy
than duck.

If you do a search on goose hunting there are sites that give recipes and processing
tips.

Geese are a lot more money too.


Now I think we really all need to go in on a piece of local farm land.

I want to dig some ponds and raise catfish too.

Yummmmm

Oh, I'm not. I have a younger brother.

Hmmm. I didn't know that. With second marriages, half siblings, and
all those complications of society who ever knows who is an only child.
My Dad wasn't home much growing up (workaholic). Who knows, maybe
I've got a brother or sister. Life never ceases to surprise me.

Me and Drum are.

Wow that was fast! That hatchery has been nothing but good to us. We'll always be using them for our meat bird needs.
