londonderry, Australia

wow look at the progress LOL

i hate it to i wake up in the mourning to find all these threads that i have to go through because u guys hav been up talking

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

well do tell tam what breeds do you have. My 1st batch the crested are in a stage now of not quite so cute most all their wing feathers are in and some have tail feathers but still have the fluffy neck and head. They are 14-15 days old. Boy can they fly tho. One jumped up in my hand yesterday while I was grabbing a feeder out.

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

still iwsh i knew LOL

londonderry, Australia

wow they can already fly at 14 days old i am impressed wat are u feeding them

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

yes they are bad about the flying around. It is utter turmoil in there at times. but no on is getting trampled to death YET. I have got to get the big ones out of there. Just the basic and table scraps. If I dont feed them table scraps they mope around, I kid you not. they are mini vultures.

londonderry, Australia

i hav only ever had one chick trampled to death

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

they love to fly!

i think i have a blue polish who is a keeper, maybe some golden laced polish, and one Appenzeller Spitzenburg. [sp?] hoping also to have some mille fleurs, i got one out of the last batch... seem a lot of really tiny ones, like fancy jap bantams or dutch or OEGs... there is less assortment in the crested, as far as i can tell. but as they feather out that will tell a LOT...

Gate (Rochester), WA(Zone 7b)

Dentist will do that Weds (or hopefully save what's left of it). I will await peachicks. Found some for $15 each about an hours drive & I have the time? / space set up to take care of a few. Maybe 3-4 or so........then I saw some ducks to; but..................

Make that chicken fairy stop! I just sent the fairy to my sis to get rid of the temptation! !

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

oh, but she is never satisfied until all chickens have homes... and all homes have chickens!

OK, fran, where is that mealworm thread? tomorrow is chicken fairy day for bantams, are you trying to HIDE???

Gate (Rochester), WA(Zone 7b)

Lodi, United States

What are your options? Do you want meat or eggs? Ornamentals? Something for your Border Collie to herd (What! You don't have a Border Collie? For shame!).

I am trying to help, tf:0)

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

yeah. lot of ehlp you are on the phone now...

Foley, MO

Ooh, the Blue Polish are very pretty, we have a few. With the ducks I suggest getting a few of e everything, then you'll know what you like best (EG) ; )

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

well, thanks everyone for your help... NOT

Columbia, TN(Zone 7b)

Not on your life! Every time my ducks see me they start making sounds like the Penguin on the old Batman tv show. Most annoying sound in the world! Not to mention that they're now flying about 8 feet off the ground!!!
No ducks!!

MollyD

Columbia, TN(Zone 7b)

The Blue Swedish are nice too, Kahki Campbells look good too. Or how about some Mallards? Definitely need some Rouens.

MollyD

Foley, MO

I looove the sounds my ducks make. They remind me of those honkers on Sesame Street : ) Mine cannot fly either?

Novinger, MO(Zone 5b)

Are you sure Molly? You have all those too small pools just setting around hoping for some more baby ducks to go swimming in them! and....you can have lots of pairs later and sell them........

Christy : )

Novinger, MO(Zone 5b)

I mean sell the eggs or the ducklings that come from them.

Columbia, TN(Zone 7b)

Mine go Quack Quack Quack just like the Batman's Penguin! They sound like they're laughing it. Mine aren't suppose to fly but I think they didn't read the manual cause they're getting off the ground very nicely.

MollyD

Columbia, TN(Zone 7b)

LOL Christy I'd rather sell the pools!

MollyD

Fritch, TX(Zone 6b)

well, you didn't say blue swedish in time!

i have ordered, for next week, with my bantams and pullets... 10 rouens, 5 buffs, 5 khaki campbells and 5 fawn runners... something like that. half crested and half not crested...

i suppose i could really drive her nuts and change mny order!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

where is the temptation thread? should i even ask?

Novinger, MO(Zone 5b)

LOL Molly....I really did laugh out loud....my DS said what, what, what is so funny!

Jkj.....are you SURE you wanna know? I think the chicken fairy really can find you ANYWHERE! : )

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

Foley, MO

I'm afraid you MUST call her back TF as you DID NOT order several of EVERYTHING! Besides, the Blue Swedes are very pretty ; )

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)
