Quail_Antwerp: Words from the Barnyard...

[keljonma]

If you haven't used up all the maxwell house coffee jugs, you could wash them out and collect some water in there...or just use that water for making coffee.

I thought the garden was going to get completely swamped with water yesterday. But this morning there weren't any puddles left in it, thankfully. The good side is that I'm not paying for water to use on the garden.....

Glad to hear you were able to get the young chicks out of the water and dried off. Crazy birds!

Yep, and I had to go back out and rescue a Black Sumatra chick just a little bit ago, too. I put him in the coop addition where it's dry and he has a light, food, and water. And company

Don't mow yet. You could pasture a dairy cow temporarily, with all that extra grass. Tell them you'll just take fresh milk for trade.

great idea except my yard isn't all fenced in yet.

Someone (lori) had requested some Muscovy Duckling pics - are you ready for some serious cuteness??

AND now with my new found knowledge (thanks BBH!) of being able to use uploads from the sister sites, I have a reason to join The Easy Garden and to frequent BYH more often

Anyhoo - here's a couple pics of Miss Priss and her babies.

I want to get some better pics of the reddish/brown babies and ask a 'scovy expert what color they think they'll be - because I'm thinking they *may* turn out to be chocolates....but I dunno for sure....

no matter what color they turn out to be, it just means I have 3 colors of Muscovy, so I'm excited about the variety!

Our phone was out for most of the day, but they got it working again.

I was supposed to have sold the white Sebastopol gosling today, but the kid - actually a young man - didn't show up. I can't just hold these goslings indefinitely, so I s'pose I'll be putting them both back up for sale.
