I have to chime in here about the Iowa blues. Do not I repeat do not buy them from Ideal unless you don't care what they look like. If you are wanting true Iowa Blues Sandhill offers them. However they did not have them this year(at least for sale). I too love them and wanted them. I ordered...

I agree it is sad so many kids do not know what farm animals even look like. I really dislike that our school starts before the fair does. Ugh. Thankfully we still have FFA at our high school. My son is going to join this year. Sad it doesn't stand for future farmers of america anymore either...

Welcome Lisa and Harleyjo! Well as some you know I got in big trouble with my hubby at the swap meet. It is what happens when you call grandma and she buys a miniature horse for your daughter. Now my wonderful hubby said I could only come home with the one call duckling. Big oops. By the...

Quote: Save me a baby call. I had a miniature silver appleyard hatch. So far he is the only one. The chicks look at him like he is a weird object. I need a friend for him. How much are your call ducklings?

Quote: You had turkey poults hatch! I only had one hatch out of 8 eggs. Now we are trying it the natural way. I'm hoping she has better luck then I did. The goat has found a home. Thanks Cassie!

Quote: I'm going. I had a muscovey hatch out 11 ducklings. They need to go because they are mixes. I also have some chicks that need to go. Oh and our baby goats are not selling. So at least one doe is coming with. Hopefully I will have the buck sold. Does anyone want a free chocolate...

I went and sold all my pullets. Then we came back with brahma chicks and a bottle fed pygmy buck. We really need to stop going there. I'm cutting back not adding on. lol

I sold two of our ducks. Now I have two other people who are wanting some ducks. Does anyone have some to sell? I can then let them know. One is looking for khaki campbells.

Is anyone interested in a pair of Embden geese? They are a year old. I have four shetlands and two chinese that we are keeping. I did not realize how much the Embden and the shetlands can look so much a like. Well the males at least. Does anyone have an idea how much I should sell the Embden...

Quote: Did you find him on Craig's list? I saw a similar mix advertised there....was very tempted but wasnt sure I had the time for a puppy this year. he is adorable. And should be a good watch dog. Yes we did find him on Craigslist. We drove 3 hrs to get him. As we were leaving with him...

I thought we were done with chicks here. My daughters blue Andalusian/spitzhauben mix showed up with 12 chicks. I guess the good thing is that almost covers all the chickens/ducks take by the fox/coyote this summer. We did get our puppy. He is half great Pyrenees and half akbash. He is very...

It is this sunday. No we are not going. Staying home this time. Tomorrow we are hoping to pick up a puppy that we are going to train to protect our animals. The kids are excited. Hopefully next summer I won't have a coyote/fox problem.

Wow, I'm glad everyone made it through the storms. We had mostly rain. 3 1/2 inches one day and two days later the same amount. The only thing happy outside was the ducks and geese. The chicken house has more leaks in it now. At least one side of it stays dry. Our basement is wet and stinks...

Welcome Catherine. Yes this is a fun group. So is anyone else think they are going to drown this morning? I just went out and got together some ducks and turkeys for a person coming this afternoon. The rain just won't stop here.

Quote: Welcome. We have a fixer upper too. The barns are so neglected.

Quote: He he he. I'm back up to over a hundred again. sigh. Someone mentioned ducks. I have ducks. Want some? We do have some muscovy mixes but they will be sterile. Baby chick pictures. NO no no no. lol Maybe I should post mine. I think I might have finally hatched out a blue...

Quote: Good idea! If only it would work that well.

There is always room for just one more, than another and another. lol Twix doesn't have very many. evil laugh. The faverolle/orpingtons hatched. They are all blue. So cool. Just makes it harder to part with them. Two have really fluffy beards. I'm keeping them. To help Clay with his...

No more chickens for me. Though I was tempted with Clay's roosters. The fox got my spare Welsummer rooster today. I'm going to have to do something about that. Or just continue to feed him my extras. I went and picked up 40 chicks, 2 geese and 3 ducks from Sandhill. It was there $20.00...

The best kind of surprise!
