Hi there.
In my title I use the word newbie not only because I'm new here but because I'm new at raising poultry. I have ten four week old ducks and seven chicks. The chicks were sent by Ideal Poultry as warmers and are roosters. I purchased two Black Jersey hens last week at a local feed store. Of course I am only keeping one rooster with the hens in the future. The rest will be seperated or given away. I have done a lot of reading about rasing ducks but as I was not expecting the chickens I will need some guidence on them too. I live in Alabama in the country and love it here.

Well, Hello again and it's good to be here.
