    You are right ducks do like water & given that they are messier than chickens. As to noise they can be noisy but I don't think that much more than chickens. The nes I had were egg laying machines. I don't know what the egg production is for Muscovies but it would be rasy for you to find out...

    Aaron (my grown son) just set out 10 straw bales a couple of days ago. We dressed them with rabbit manure that had collected over the last year under the rabbit hutch & but a thin layer of planting mix with Osmocote. He will now keep them watered til next Weds & then we will plant. We are trying...

    We bought an inexpensive one for my daughter at Tractor Supply. It was just for a couple of pullets for her for her own use. I agree that you can find some on Craigslist too but this is a bad time because everyone will be gearing up for chickens....kind of a spring fever thing. I made my pens...

    We got bees last year & they are going crazy with the almonds right now. We live right next door to an almond orchard & are surrounded by hundreds of acres of almonds all around this area. Dairies & Almonds seem to be the key around here. My daughter has harvested & put up quite a bit & she has...

    I don't know Dawn. I watched a lot of You Tube videos & came up with my own 9 tray system that fit on my unused breakfast nook counter. Seems like I took pictures for another chicken lover if I can find them & figure out how to post them. I am not good at that....a techno geek I am not.!!!! I...

    I too have sprouted grains for my chickens. I tried several & set up an inexpensive system of my own with supplies from Tractor Supply & the $ store. I was able to sprout 9 trays at a time so it was used like a weekly additive but they absolutely loved it & cleaned every bit of it up. It was fun...

    Welcome Ladybug,.................. So glad you are enjoying your chicken experience. You may have some trouble getting takers on your offer. We all end up with more roosters than we need so many have to go to the soup pot or given away. There are many people here that live in city limits that do...

    So sorry you have neighbor problems. I haven't experienced that yet but living in the country is totally different. My next door neighbor may complain about the free range Guineas I have that for some reason love to free range under his almond orchard, I think they are just eating bugs & they...

    I belonged to the Turlock Quilt Guild for years & did weekly quilt workshop classes for years too. A friend of mine has her own long arm machine & does my quilting for me. She is a business & paid mega bucks for her machine but it paid for itself in the first 3 years. I mostly craft sew but have...

    I do pretty well in Modesto considering that I think of it as the other side of the world.....LOL I rarely go. With my son now living in our old house there I go a little more often but only if I have plans with someone for lunch or I am going to a garden club meeting. I need to go to take my...

    Actually Jules, the lady with me, was from even farther. She came from Madera & picked me up in Turlock to go together. We had a fine time meeting Dawn's @AlpineBantys friends. Her girls were lovely & yes her coop is very unique & a great use of space. We got lost going home & spent an...
