If you want lav orphingtons I can give you a mix of splash blue and lav. When mine start to lay that is might have to wait for a while... The still be quite young..

You're the sweetest.

Here are the ones I've been looking at. I've been researching breeders. But I need to slow down. First things first I have to get that coop to my dads and make it coon proof. We are going to get it on Friday! (I hope. My grandma just went in the hospital last night, so now everything is focused on her... as it should be.)

These people look like they have some pretty nice birds. They have mallards, and aren't that far.

Hey thanks Julie. I had seen that add and was dragging my feet in contacting them. I'm taking this as a sign. I've emailed them. Thanks so much!

I wish I was closer! I love SQ rouens

They are. I keep staring at them thinking about if I should contact them about them or wait for my roman tufted. That's why I remembered the mallards, lol.

Do they seem pricey to you? I would have NO Idea, just asking.

Geese are expensive period I think. For unsexed just regular production toulose and embdem goslings at the feed store this spring were $15 each. So I think $100 a pair for the american blue and lavender that are breeding age and harder to find is pretty good. Especially for show quality. $800 a pair, idk, it's out of my league but I don't know how much those geese sell for.

I was kind of wanting the lavenders, then I could hatch my own goslings this spring. They just look so big though, the geese I want are little.
Just looked at Holderread's. Show quality adult pairs of American blue and lavender are 100-150 plus shipping, show breeder quality 80, so guess the prices sound fair.

In that case, you should get the lavenders.

HELLO!!!!!

Sorry I have been gone so long but family has been lingering around the house still. Duckies are moved out to the front porch. Yes.

. They were really starting to get pretty stinky in the bathtub. Even cleaning it up 8-9 times a day, they still stunk. So they are now on the porch with plenty of room to run around and chase each other.

They are getting so big and losing all their soft downy feathers and getting their youth feathers in. Libby lools so fiuny. Heres what she lloks like now

I walk out to the front porch and they all come running out of the dog house and peeping away at me


Taking down Christmas decorations today and going through old boxes of stuff. I need a nap nowm

I would buy that blue pair in a heart beat! Oh, and BTW, blue and lavender americans cant be shown.... The price on there for SQ lavs and blues are because those are from better quality lines. Not Really SQ...

Sm, thats DEffinetly a welshie!
