i know Judy...my camera need this new cord to connect it to the puter and we have a newer digital video camera which theoretically can take still pics but i cant figure it out...im working on the pics really i am!
She came and brought two of the most awesome looking white crested ducks (boy and girl) and I picked out 3 rouens trying to use all the cues i found online--> males having greener bills, different quacks, looking for green feather development etc...im sure i probably got it totally wrong but hopefully i managed to get a couple girls and a boy! They went straight into the tub for a swim! Now they are sitting in a big deep bed of fresh hay eating their food. They are REALLY friendly little buggars...i mean the lady brought them to my house ( she wanted to see where they would be living which i think is very responsible of her!) in the back of her truck and she just handed them to me--> these ducks are totally tame, they just snuggled up and were totally comfortable being handled. The rouens are less tame but still very calm when picked up.
How totally cool! Good grief i have to stop getting new birds or my chicken eutopia that i created where they have 900+sqfeet to enjoy with total protection on 6 sides will be counteracted by having too many birds. I have 29 now...24 chickens and 5 ducks. I do anticipate selling off at least 2 roos and if i get more than one rouen male then the other one will also be sold.
