In his new book about ducks the 2nd edition and the one before this one his said "This are some of the ones that we have bred on the farm."

So I am not for sure

Anybody know

I think those were raised in the past. I dont think he currently has any.. Under his breeds list, you can see what he is currently working with.

Just because something was in the book as "was raised on the farm," doesn't mean he currently has any. Dave started a nationally accredited and prize winning sebastapol geese line. Since he could never keep up with the demand, and it caused alot of hard work considering the amount of breeding pens it took to try and meet demand, he SOLD ALL OF THEM.. I think they still have some goslings, and maybe a few full size (maybe, but i doubt it) for their own breeding purposes.

He is constantly reducing the number of birds he has, and just continues to work with the breeds HE personally want to keep.
