UPSTATE NY chickenstock OCT 3rd Sunday!! -The aftermath and hatching

[aceschix]

I would love to have you come for a visit!!

But remember if you come in the summer I can offer you the house on the lake for as long as you would like it.

Good excuse to come thru and as long as you are coming this far you might as well hit the beach in Maine for some zen time. Love the beach zen.

Good morning, all! I have a few geese and ducks that I would like to sell, but am really hesitant to haul them all the way up to NY unless someone wants them ... they're so messy in crates!

So, here is what I have:

2 sebastopol geese (girls), 1 year old, saddlebacks (grey and white), from Holderread stock
1 show-quality, brown Chinese goose (girl), 2 years old
1 saddleback Pomeranian gander, 2 years old
2 blue runner ducks (girls)
1 black runner duck (girl)
2 fawn & white runner ducks (girls)
2 chocolate runner ducks (girls)
1 Cayuga duck (yes, a girl, too!)

If anyone is interested, please send me a PM. We can work out a reasonable (or maybe cheap) price for them and I'll be glad to bring them to NY.

Thanks!

Cool pics, Nat! Doesn't your dog keep the predators away? He certainly looks like he is in protection mode. lol Is that a fox or a coyote in the pics? Jungle out there, isn't it! lol

yah you saw both well 3 raccoon-fox and coyote! I havent lost a bird in two years because they all get locked up at night! They cant get into garage and teh coop has wired floors with a ton of dirt over it! ba$$terds arent getting my babies! oh and the dog would kill my birds-haha he is never allowed to roam like that until all birds are locked up-he goes for alot of leash walks! My chihuahua though is the chicken lover-he sleeps with them in the sun-plays cat and mouse with them and he always loses-he's a goood dog

Ive never had Geese before I just love the looks of those specific geese. I can't imagine letting them live don by the pond:-( It totally freezes over in winter so no swimming for anything:-( My ducks dont even go in it in the Summer-they love their baby pools-they could if they wanted to as they free range all day but they are in the garage at night for lockdown!
