Can anyone tell me what kind of duck this is? It's a beautiful grey

It is Blue Swedish and it looks to be female.

I think Cari was looking for a cabinet incubator and that is a steal.


I am and would LOVE to have it, but it's unfortunately out of my budget right now.

That said, anyone interested in 11 month old blue wheaten ameraucana pullets that lay REALLY blue eggs? Also blue and pied peachicks. Please pm if interested.

The ameraucana chicks and pullets are gone. Thanks to all who showed interest.

Well, the cockerels have gone to roost over with WFF and I will say I am going to miss my Blue Cochin Boy. He was a whole lot of sweet boy in a tiny, gorgeously feathered frame. Sigh...not going to miss that Red though...I re-named him Pecker for a reason.

Thank you to everyone that helped find my boys a home.

Now, what do I want to replace them with?! Mwahahah...hubs told me to get THREE more! Apparently he is doing the chicken math for me!

Thanks!

PeepsCA has been going through the process. She is in Northern California. You will find her mostly on the Guinea discussion groups. I believe all your birds even the non production birds have to be banded or tagged and tested initially. But thats as much as I know.

A co-worker of my hubby wants to buy "farm fresh" eggs and lives in Chula Vista. He says he is willing to drive "where ever" ... is there a list of people that sell eggs around those parts?

Our gals won't be laying for a bit.
