Mom told me to downsize.....PICS ADDED

So I took my 4 extra muscovy drakes to auction today. They brought 2 bucks a piece which I wasn't thrilled about but they were one of the last things to sell and nobody was there really except a big time buyer that buys a ton of birds then resells/butchers them. Well to my parents dismay I didn't come back empty handed

I bought a nice new wire cage for 7 bucks...perfect for quail, chukar, pheasant brooding. And also bid and won on a crate of Muscovy ducklings....got 11 week old ducklings for $2.25 a piece. Pretty happy about that...and at least the drakes paid for the gas to get there!

Here are some pics....they look like mostly whites...but 1 chocolate pied...2 what I believe are blue pieds...and another duckling that could have some blue in her.

You brought in $8 and spent over $30. Do you work for the government?

Do you know what downsizing means?

 

[saddina]

Why is it everyone downsizing is hours/days away driving?

Hmmm your duck math sounds like my hen math.

downsizing = trading in adult birds for baby ones!

LOL! sounds like something I would do. My dad told me to get rid of some roosters and I ended up bringing more home a week after I got rid of them.
