XD I'd imagine so! :gig

I KNOW RIGHT?!! From cackle hatchery to,so they should be decent quality :fl sadthing is,the pictures they had of their eggs were even darker than the FRENCH BCMs :th

And the summers were significantly cheaper, so mom settled for them :yesss: I love welsummers :love


Yeah, say 12.50x4 = $50 A WEEK. (Ok so the ducklings and layer chicks are eating that too so it's two hundred birds eating the chick feed but it's still a lot.)

Sweet.
 
:clap






Wait.






















You're hatching more ducklings?????????
:th


Well I just said I was gonna pop just under 30 in the bator Monday. :P We need profit somewhere until the rangers are ready. It costs about 1.75 to produce a dozen eggs, maybe two dollars to run the bator so costs maybe $4 to hatch a dozen eggs, if I can sell for $5 or $6 each (higher for the crests.) then I covered cost of hatching and there's some profit, the rangers are eating ALOT of food, if I can sell about 16+ ducklings every couple weeks or so I should be able to just about cover feed. There are people looking for ducks, they walk into tractor supply or the local feed stores and ask "are you getting in ducks this year?" And the only answer I've heard is no.

So you're going to try and feed off TSC's insatiable customer stock...
:clap Awesome!!! :thumbsup That's great to feed off of a market that they should be able to satisfy, but can't. :D

I am. :D It's Not that they can't but they won't, I saw chicks three times this year, nearly a month apart every time and half of those were silkies, the other half was CXs, links and leghorns, never saw any waterfowl. They probably aren't even selling anymore.
