Poultry keeper here. Current flock is Silver Dorkings, with an older buff Orph. and an elderly bantam cochin. Would like to get ducks, but they can really raise the feed costs, and then there is the mess! I also want pigeons, but right now we are focused in getting the milk goats back into production. One can only deal with so many projects at once.

WHO on Earth could possibly think domestic ducks could survive "free"?
Wow.
