Just bad when your looking for a mate for a 2 week old goose out of 10 eggs he should find one

More pics of my new babies.

SA & Wrong Way:

And the whole gang together:

Beautiful babies! Love the spotted/mottled looking ones

i just had some weirdo email me asking if i had any duck calls because his wife needed one.
like wth!!

Look what I got! Hubby's uncle was working and had to cut down a limb that had fallen part the way on a roof. There was a nest and these 2 fell out so he brought them to me. Love baby squirrels, it's been years since I had one. They are fun, but man they have some sharp claws.

Awwww...I've raised a couple of batches of these little guys, too....but never that young! And yeah, their claws are very sharp

I had a batch get out of their cage one time while I owasn't home. I looked all over for them, panicked. I finally sat down on the couch to think, and low and behold, out of the couch cushions they came! Little buggers were hiding

Here, this way you don't need to click on a link lol.

Very cute baby boy!

This question wasn't for me, but Goat Milk! I've seen human babies raised on goat milk, foals,kittens, puppies, raccoons, squirrels etc..... all raised on goat milk and let me tell you they end up looking better than the babies on their own kinds milk.

I have sold goat milk to people for all kinds of critters, and I've fed it to all sorts of critters. My vet would call me for colostrum from time to time, too. It saved my horses life...got him at 6 wks old, half dead on his feet. He learned where the stuff came from, as well as my milking schedule. He'd stand outside the milk room looking in, watching me squeeze out his next meal...lol. To this day, at age 5, he'll still drink milk out of a bucket!

$45 for 3 ducklings. I paid twice that for 3 goose eggs (plus shipping).

Uh, yeah...I've paid way more than that for chicken eggs, too...shipped! And you know what kind of gamble shipped eggs are

Yes. And I am on a wait list for a 2nd set of buff dewlaps, which will be $35 per egg. Ouch! I hate having expensive taste in animals. lol

Me too....very expensive taste when it comes to animals

My goosie, I love her so much. She makes these little cooing sounds at me and nibbles on my neck.

Absolutely gorgeous!!! Congrats!! What's her name?? ( I received my Scentsy today, LOVE IT!!!)

I'm hanging out as late as I can since my last Toulouse looks to be internally pipping and I want to move it to hatcher. African #1 is making good progress. Not sure if it will start zipping before morning. Still no visible pips on the other 3, but they are all looking good.

 

[Iain Utah]

Sue and Jerry, you are goose hatching fiends!

 

[QuackerJackFarms]

I'm not sure..... these will be my first silkie ducklings, so we will see. If we get them around the same time I can post pics of what mine look like because Holderread Guaranteed them to be silkie feathered.

Now if ya get all of one color and don't want a few. I would be happy to take a few off your hands. I mean, I would hate for you to waste the space on just one color. So no problem helping you out that way.

Cool ! (You're out of control... )

She is a Sebbie

I love her. Do you think it's a her? I think it's a girl. She has feminine features.

(that may sound crazy)

PSue is trying to make room in our bators we drove hundred miles to get 10 eggs im sure we have lost our minds

LMBO! You're out of control too!!

I hate and love this part, all at once.
