We inherited 10 Rhode island reds, 3 Mallards and a Rouen. We added 4 Muscovies, and 2 Khaki Campbell's. Right now I have 12 1 week old Wyandottes and 3 Easter Eggers in a brooder. And we have 3 Royal purple Guineas, 5 chocolate Muscovy, 5 blue Muscovy,and two Cayuga ducks coming in May. Kinda caught the bird bug. Never thought I'd love having them so much!

Wow! You are off to a great start!
 
I found a dead rat today :/ I've never seen one besides the fancy pet ones before and I have no idea how long it was there. I don't know if maybe the flock killed it or if it was dead a while ago and hidden under the snow. It looked like maybe a juvenile. It was big bit not huge...it makes me nervous.

Wow! Sounds like a dream, I'm glad you are enjoying them so much! And now you have somewhere to talk all about them without us getting bored! :)

I wonder about doing thaf instead of male chicks this spring. Is 3 hours in the car pushing it for a full sized roo to be in a box or carrier?

How far are you from the turnpike? I might be able to add a stop for you on a Spring chicken train

Nah, but I believe the chicken train will be making a run through the state around Easter. If you can meet along the route, I'm sure a roo could catch a ride. Just a thought

Definitely doable. The train is a great idea though!

Excellent! I didn't REALLY want to leave my girls without a grown roo over the summer and it would be great to start with one that has already been proven to be docile!

We are about 15 minutes from the Fort Littleton exit.

I live in the southern most tip of Huntingdon County, 30 minutes south of Mount Union (I'm actually an hour from Huntingdon). Are you from Huntingdon? And how did you end up at Juniata if you aren't?
