I was thinking of raising Australian Spotted ducks, but after seeing some very abused Rouens. They were under weight and had the worst wet feather I had ever seen. They were living in filthy conditions. It made me think twice. Just looking for some ideas. I would like to help the breed out as...

Has anyone had a issue with the ONLY gander attacking a goose? I have four geese and one gander. He hates my Chinese/production African what ever she is goose. He has attacked her and will not let her near the other geese. I have to keep her in a crate at night to keep her safe. Any suggestions...

I am think of getting one or two Oregon mini geese. I have American buff and blue and a brown African and a brown Chinese. I really don't care fore the Chinese goose but love the Americans and African. So I was wondering if anyone knows how the minis are for temperament?

She was hatched this March. She has been very agressive toward my year old buff goose who backs down and does not start the fight. She is separated at night but still in the same house as the other geese. The ducks and geese have different houses. She has also got hold of my khaki hen and...

Ima Goose at 3 days and 1 1/2 weeks

For some reason my American geese get very upset about my drakes doing their thing with the hens. Wilbur and Charlotte ( the Geese) will run over and honk like crazy until the drakes get off. I use to have a African goose (I had to put her down do to a very bad injury) that would pull the drakes...

My kiddo is wanting to show geese. We have decided on American Blue geese. We are getting them from Holderreads. Can anyone tell me what conformation to look for or tell me where to get a used APA book? Thanks.

I am interested in showing waterfowl and so is my kiddo. I was wondering if color is more important that conformation. Like in horse color is that important. It is more about the angles of the shoulders and hips, how long or short the back is ext. If someone could post conformation pics good...

I can try to get a better pic. I don't know chicken conformation and my daughter is wanting to show this hen. She is a super sweet chicken. Thanks.

I was wondering because I noticed that the blue verity is not in the APA only the buff. I think that it would be nice to get the blue ones recognized also. I do have a pair of blues coming in the mail that are show quality. I am interested in showing the someday. So I would like to know if...

Pasture Raised duck eggs Animal Welfare Approved. [email protected]

I have found that most people will not eat a duck egg because it is different or gross in their eyes. I was wondering why? They come out the same way as chicken eggs.

Just wondering how many get their fowl for what ever reason? Just for fun.

Eggs from very spoiled ducks. Pasture raised. Unlimited outdoor space. The ducks have at least 12 hours out a day and duck pond. I get about dozen eggs a day. I do not ship eggs.

Does any one have any experience with them? Will it help with sells of duck eggs? Or does anyone have good ideas of marketing duck eggs. I am on the western slope of Colorado.

I am looking for a natural way to deworm my ducks. I just don't want to throw away all the eggs for a month. Thank for any info.
