Hey Ryan... I don't have any ducks to help you with... but you may want to check either of these two threads, they get more regular traffic. This particular one is being used for planning a picnic get together in June for folks in Pa. You're welcome to join in with it too though! The more the merrier!

Here is a general Pa thread that is pretty active...

and this one isn't nearly as active, but does get some traffic and more in your area...

Thank you

 

[chiques chicks]

Not sure if I'll make it or not. Work schedule won't be posted until a couple days prior. Either day can work if I don't work. Not sure if I'll be bringing anything.

 

[BullChick]

Are we still allowing chicks? I think the age agreed on was a few weeks, or any chick not introduced to other birds/coops.
Anyway, I have a broody that is due the 18th. Just mutt chicks, but probably EE. If we are doing chicks, how do you keep a chick warm for the whole day? Hope for a warm day, and have plenty of bedding? Have a heat lamp on the bike?

 

[galgo98]

Chicks are fine! I have a few extra heat lamps if you need one, and plenty of places to plug in!! You won't need to use your bike as a generator! : )

We so have to plan another (granted this goes well) cuz I'm booked that weekend! Maybe I can send a few totes w/ motherhen!

Did you just volunteer to plan one for the fall

 

[Kiomey]

I vote yes lol maybe we can host it at/during my hometown's fall tractor swap/old time days show in September!!

 

[galgo98]

Holy cow!!!! Where has the time gone??? We are only a little over a week away, so I'd better get my butt in gear!!!

Looks like Sat is the final date. (I'm sorry beaglady
