 Ducks and chickens

guinea fowl 1 week old!!

Our guinea fowl are here at last!! we got them to protect the ducks and chickens because want these guys are older they will set a territory (our yard) and learn who can and can't be in our yard when they see something that doesn't belong, SCREECH!!! they made the loudest sound! then they start charging to scare the predator (or your friends). they look like a cross between a chicken and a turkey when they are adults.

 

Duck bath

I let my ducks bathe every evening. But before they get their feathers in (and natural oils) you need to dry the belly and chest. the lamp will do the rest. They really like to bathe!! (well duh! their ducks!)

 Splash!!

Sploosh!
