[moodlymoo]

I am bringing some couple day old Easter Egger chicks, you could try slipping some under her at night, save you some time if she will take to them......... The eggs are from a friend, all blue/green/olive colour eggs from a hatchery easter egger roo and hens. I have a broody Wheaten Marans who is going to get some chicks as soon as they hatch (on lockdown now, Tuesday PM is 21 days).

I need hatching eggs for a super broody cochin I have.

[peacedove]

Can anyone recommend a breed of duck that is medium to large sized, good layers and foragers, and the drakes take care of their girls, and don't attack other males viciously? My experience has been with Ancona, Runner Duck, and Runner duck mixes. I am tired of hearing hens crying out all day because they are being pursued relentlessly. It is 1 drake and 6 hens. We want ducks for laying, and really only need one drake at a time to keep the population going. Any ideas?

In the meantime, I have an Ancona drake, 2yo, to trade or sell for $5.

Here's my update:
peacedove -
HAVE
- 9+ pullet mixes, 8 - 15 mo. avail. IMMEDIATELY $10 or open to trade. Breeds mixed are LF Salmon Faverolle, Blue Andalusian, Egyptian Fayoumis, White Splash Cuckoo Marans, & Minorca. If you have a specific interest PM me. Otherwise I will bring what I have room for.
- Male Gray Cockatiel about 3 yo?, I adopted him about a year and a half ago ~ Cuckoo is a Pretty Bird ~ whistles, talks,loves attention (talking to, not handling) and live jam sessions (he will make lots of happy sounds, which isn't always appreciated by all, but he has a lot of fun!). He prefers not to share really close quarters with other birds. He likes to have his space, and when he has that he seems to get along just fine with others. He has been housed with another cockatiel, and a pair of budgies and white doves. Cuckoo is a hand fed bird that has not been handled in awhile, but where he used to live he had free flight times and he always came back to his cage. He is very personable, and looking for a good home to take him in.
BRINGING
- for WiseAcreBantams, 1 pink and white brimmed beanie
- for SkyeSchazade, 2 pullets, 1 White/Blue And. mix and 1 Fayoumis mix
- for KermitsMom, 2 pullets, 1 Blue Andalusian mix, 1 Salmon Fav mix
- Male Lutino/White Cockatiel ~ Lilu ~ hatched spring 2011, not hand fed, and handled very little, bought as a companion for Cuckoo. Very pretty bird that we hoped was a she, but is not. Lilu likes to be talked to and comes up to the cage front to listen. He does not like to be handled, and we
don't push him. Paid $65 for him, and if I could re-home him for $25 that would be awesome.
- Triple Roof Parakeet Cage by Prevue, Dimensions: 26" L x 14" D x 22 ½" wire spacing. Used gently approx. Best Offer ONLY AFTER Birds have been re-homed. I will use this cage to bring them to the swap if I still have them.
- 2yo white and black Ancona Drake, FREE
I also have his mate, a pure lavender colored? Ancona hen I could part with for $30 if you take the drake. I like the hen, and she lays HUGE eggs, but I really want the drake to go.
- Plant starts: Yarrow, Lemon Balm, various Mint Varieties
3-4" square pots with at least 3 starts, $1
Mint in water sprouting, or with roots established, 3/$1
- Assorted seeds, including tomato

[Cloverleaf Farm]

Khaki Campbells are supposed to be one of the best laying breeds, but I think Swedish ducks are the sweetest! (To clarify, my experience with them is very limited, as the only ducks I have ever had are Calls).

 

[ChicksRoseburg]

peacedove, I have one drake and 7 hens, they are Muscovy/khaki Campbells' Duckling are a cross breed Muscovy Water Foul and khaki Campbells' Duck (khaki Campbell is Mallard, Indian Runner Duck Cross) making the resulting ducklings "Mules", meaning that when the ducklings grow up they are unable to reproduce fertile eggs, the females can lay eggs most every day,like a chicken. Our Muscovy/khaki Campbells' Duckling are three weeks old. Here is a picture of their parents, and them. You can PM me if you want to meet at swap as I am bringing them.

[WallTenters]

HAVE

CHICKS
Dominique, Orpington, Americauna, Americauna X and Orpington X chicks. Day olds ($5 SR, $7 pullets, $4 cockerels) and priced up from there depending on age.
Japanese chicks - black tailed buff, lavenders, greys and blacks. ($10 SR)

HATCHING EGGS
SQ/BQ Americaunas ($20),
Olive Eggers, sex-linked ($20),
Easter Eggers ($15),
Easter Eggers, sex-linked ($20) (3/4 Americauna),
Orpington, sex-linked 3/4 Orp, B/B/S barred ($15 - priced lower because he's a young roo and still lots of blood feathers so fertility is only 60-70%),
Orpington, 3/4 Orp., B/B/S barred ($15)
Dominique ($20) - three breeding pens, two of our lines and one pure Urch pen

OTHER

A very nice black Americauna cock - very sweet, beautiful, show quality but having problems hatching chicks from him so not for breeding. $10, discount to 4-H showman

1yr old pair of Black Tail Buff Japanese - great little birds, good producers, just focusing on other varieties. These two are med length leg. $25/pair

Vegetable starts - lots of tomatoes, beans, peas, etc. $1-$2

Feeder roaches ($10/30 + 1 adult pair+) - our birds LOVE these! They are loaded with live proteins and other nutrition the birds cannot get from a plant based diet alone. These multiply fast, are extremely easy to care for, and are not an invasive species if they happen to escape (our weather is too cold). They eat almost anything, love oranges . They are slow moving and flightless so it takes away from the ick factor, but the birds really LOVE these guys, great for training aids. Perfect way to bring some animal protein to your birds without worrying what else those bugs have fed on.

Urch line Dominiques - we think we have a buyer for these but not 100% certain yet. Day old chicks $5 ($6/pullet, $4/cockerel), started chicks $7+ based on age.


WANT
Trading strawberry starts for eggs with SkySchazade
An american black or blue Orpington pullet or hen - breeder/show quality
A black or blue breeder/show quality Americauna cock
