Lovely duck pics everyone - and what a great Guinea photo, CG!!!

Love that brooder, BJD!!!!



People - whatever you do, do not call Evelle a hoarder. She is not, and never has been, a hoarder. Keeping live animals is not hoarding. But you should still definitely sell his turkeys.


Vanilla Ice???
CRIKEY.

However I agree that He-Man is cool.

Here is what I have done so far of my new duck pen. It's 10 feet long by 6 feet wide. I have put the heavy mesh on the bottom to stop foxes digging in. Going to do more work on it on Friday and then hubby will help me on the weekend. Edit: It will eventually have a sand base but I'm going to trial deep litter for a bit first since I'm interested in how suitable it is for ducks.

Very nice! I have a little 4x6 one now. It is really not big enough for my 5 right now, and we are keeping 5 of the babies, so I need to at least double! I am planning on doing that within a few weeks. I like to try to get free materials, like pallets and scrap wood as much as possible. My dad is amazing at helping me with these things!
