I'm excited since I will be getting my poultry orders come this April! Pigeons, Chicken chicks, some older hens from an eastern S.D. farm, and some ducklings. Will be all arriving within a week of each other! Should really make things crazy for a while. LOL but I am so excited that they are all coming.

I just put in an order for a couple dozen mixed hatching eggs. Would like to find a few older laying hens. Actually haven't been around hear in a while.

Hello, what part of SD are you in? I will be getting some "old layers" from farmer on April 19th. I don't need as many as she is giving me. So if you are wanting one or two for setting, that is plausible. She is giving (selling em to me for $1 ea) me a total of 31 hens and a rooster. The hens range in age from 3 yrs to 5 yrs.

I am from Estelline. I wouldn't mind taking a few of the extras. Just got done repairing the chicken coop. I am still working on a better nest box. Made the first one and it isn't quite up to par, needs some adjustments.

Just got my muscovy duck pair today! Juveniles

They are beautiful tan with some gray marking. Absolute beauties

Wahoo

Hopefully I start hearing some activity from inside my incubator. Sounds awful quiet.

Don't they always seem that way, as we "patiently" wait for things to happen? Its all outside our control and its like kids waiting at the window of a candy store just WISHING they'd open up so we can get some goodies.

One chick so far, one working his way out.

Just started raising chicks. 4 Black Aussies. Ready for them to start laying. Too bad there only a few days old. Good to see some fellow south dakotans.

Well the last batch came out to 6 chicks, only have 11 eggs in due to hatch this weekend. 4 chicks are spoken for. The rest, if there are more, are available.
