About 7 weeks. The only thing I didn't like (and the pic doesn't really portray it accurately), is the wattles looked a bit red.
Not too big, and some breeds do have girls get bright wattles.
But I was staring at the boys, then her and really questioned myself.
I've treat trained her for weeks...
Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well. Haven't been on here in quite a while.
I need input on those with ducks.
Cayenne pepper keeps mice out of chicken feed. The chickens can't sense the heat from the peppers.
But is this true for ducks too?
Will the cayenne be hot for the ducks?
Hoping to keep...
Does anyone have any ideas for this? I have a rooster that breeds really rough, he pulls all the feathers out of the heads. No that's gone, he's pulling on the skin really hard. I'm not sure what to do. I want to replace him, but hoping someone else has a good idea. I put on the no pic rooster...
IN TRACY- I have a breeding trio of French white muscovies for sale. 2 are about 1 1/2 years old and the last female is about 8 months . Girls are laying and boy is fertile.
Just too many ducks over here. Will part with the 2 females as well if they go as a pair.
These are raised as a meat bird...
well he is my friends so I don't see him often, so missed the saddle feathers.
His comb and waddles were quite small always.
Perhaps due to the other boys in the pen he didn't crow, but the other boys never bothered him either.
I'm going to see his type but was a little concerned with using a...
This one may be about 4 1/2-5 months
There were 2 other boys in the pen. A very dominant marans about a month older and another jubilee who was clearly male.
So it never got any dancing, crowing or calling to girls going on. The marans harassed the other jubilee male but not this one.
It's been...
Can you help?
I am believing this is a pullet. No male characteristics. But those look like saddle feathers in the back.
She's about 5 months old
Opinions?
Hi all!
Hope everyone has been well. Haven't been on here in a while. Doing good with the heat but those darn misters are clogging in 1 day. We got a water softener now and it seems worse this year.
But all in all, everyone is happy.
Our marans hens raised some Cornish crosses and itS been...
Can anyone tell me please:
Hatching with the yoke unabsorbed: would that be high temps or low temps?
I had 5 from different breeds
Thank you and I hope your all doing well.
Just dropped in to say hi! Hope everyone is doing well. I'll be at the Modesto show, hope you are planning on a meet up.
I've been doing a little side hobby: soap making!! A couple batches I used the rendered duck fat after processing.
Here's some pics. They contain: Goats milk, Shea butter...
awe, thank you so much! She'd be my favorite if she didn't run from me all of the time, lol!
I didn't think I'd like the blue jubilees as much as I do. But I'm quite smitten :) I can't wait for the combs to get red and brighten up closer to lay
Here's a couple more color shots. I love all of...
Hi all its been a while. Here is my "egg plant" coop. My husband kept saying " this one is going to be really nice because it's the last chicken coop I'll ever have to build". Silly guy, I don't know where he got that idea from because I do need one more.:gig
Also attached is my Blue Jubilee...
