So I have a female duckling and I want to get another female and a male so I can sell fertile eggs. Are pekin ducks good setters? If not I will have to incubate them but how do I know when they are fertile if they do not set on them? How many eggs will a duck lay in a batch of babies? How long will ferile eggs last not warm? Thanks!

Mixing a chicken and duck question?

I saw this thing on TV and I cannot remember if it was a commercial or on an actual TV show but it was two guys talking and one said “what do you get when you mix a chicken and a duck?”. All I remember is that the last thing they said was “Charles Dickens?”. Anybody know what I am talking about??

Chicken and duck question? 10 points!?

Tue, 11 May 2010 22:40:35 +0000

So I want to get 4 hens and 2 buff orpington ducks. I have a couple of questions.
1) My run for the poultry is going to be covered and what should the size of the run be? They will be in the run 24/7. I definately dont want them to be in a small cramped situation, so I want them to be free range, and not get to canniblism. What I was also thinking too is to have my dad build a little chicken tractor to put them in that in the day for like 5 hours. But would there need to be like one nesting box in there? or ???
2) is getting two hen ducks a good idea? I just want to make them into pets and keep the chickens just for hens.
3) How amny eggs per week on average would I get? I want to get a Buff orpington hen, an araucana hen, a Barred rock hen, and a Welsummer hen. I would get more chickens but this is my first time having poultry.
4) would it be better just to get my 4 hens first and then later get my two ducks?

thanks! 10 points!

Some duck and chicken questions…….?

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 10:41:16 +0000

Okay, so, I’m going to be getting some ducklings in about three weeks and I am starting to make housing plans.

I was wondering, can I house two ducks and two chickens in the the same pen? Why or why not?

Also, if I get two ducks and raise them from hatchlings, will they still be tame and friendly to me, or will they only like eachother?

How much room do 2 ducks and 2 chickens ( together, if possible) need for housing? ~ How many square feet? (is 11′ by 15′ good enough?)

Is hog fencing a good fencing to use for the pen? ( will it be raccoon proof that way?

How many eggs do two average/normal hens lay a day? ~ If they are healthy.

Thank You Very Much! Many Blessings!

Duck (and chicken) questions?

Tue, 30 Mar 2010 22:40:43 +0000

If i get both and keep them in a run together i would provide a kiddie pool. My first question is would the chickens get in it? If so how can i keep them out? How messy is a duck(In the coop)? How much room do they need? Also, I either want to get a pair of Indian runners or call ducks. I will raise them from ducklings. What one will make a better pet? Could i get a call duck and an Indian runner?
I have hawks in my area so i can not let them out all day but i will supervise them outside each day so they can free range and fertilize my garden. I don’t care if Indian runners are ugly i just wanted to know if they will be friendly
