The Quack Shack

Getting to meet @Tooshay89 and her husband yesterday was very nice. They have a beautiful place and the pictures of the baby goats does not do them justice. They are so adorable! The barn kittens are darn cute too.

I appreciate them having me out. It's always nice to meet and chat with like minded people.

Thanks for coming up! I can't wait to see what you hatch.

I'm not to sure yet. Seems like a sinus infection for Xaiden, and jonah is hopefully just from teething. He's been cutting his molars, like 5 in the last 2 weeks.

Dang, that's not fun. I remember those teething days and I don't wish them on anyone. Poor babes!

Gray like mallard-colored or gray like the actual color gray? I can help you with the genetics, if you need

Gray as in my avatar gray.

So blue bibbed, it looks like That color, luckily, isn't hard. The blue dilution gene is incompletely dominant. Blue bred to blue will yield 50% blue, 25% black, and 25% silver. Blue to black is 50% blue and 50% black. Silver to black is 100% blue.

So since it's a dominant gene, as long as you have any of them that are blue (or silver) you'll get blue ducklings from them, and won't lose the color.

Are you wanting to keep the white or were you trying for solid blue?

Man, everyone must be off living their lives today.

I'm sitting here waiting for my husband to get back with our two new goats. Every minute is like an eternity!
