Research You Ignored And Wished You Hadn't

I waffle on this one . . . a friend told me I should get ducks since my yard gets wet/muddy but I heard drakes are very "rapey" so I opted for chickens instead. . . .

I haven't witnessed chickens or ducks mate . . .so IDK yet

I actually had a dream last night about having ducks, lol . . I wish I was kidding . . .

I have decided IF I get ducks it will only be hens, no drakes allowed!

Advice I got: you should add pool noodles to the coorigated roofing so you don't hit your head.

I'll get my stitches out next week....

Yikes! Hope you heal quickly.

When I first got pigeons, I only got a couple, and was told not to let them out of their pen unless I got a larger flock. I thought it would be like free ranging chickens, but I was wrong, and I lost one of my pigeons the first time I tried to let them “free fly”. I now have a larger flock, but keep them in a closed aviary, and they are very happy.

I also regret not setting up a rooster-only pen sooner.
