Healthy Ducks for Sale

After me voicing that I wanted a pond in the back yard, my husband jokingly said to find some Ducks for sale while I was at it. I don’t think that is a bad idea at all. If all goes well with building the pond that I would like to have at the edge of the back yard, they would be an ideal addition to it. Plus, not many people I know like duck eggs, but I do! They have a nice rich flavor and are great for omelets, in my opinion.

If I can Buy Ducks along with the chickens, I’d be on way to becoming a back yard farmer of sorts. Plus I think these animals are so darn cute to watch. They would be a most welcome addition to my back yard. They might even turn out to be nice pets also!

I thought it would be so nice to find some nice laying  Chickens for Sale. I would love to go out to their coop and fetch my own eggs that came from my own chickens, and ducks without having to buy them in the store at a really high prices for brown chicken eggs. My whole family love fresh eggs, and brown ones are the best. I think they have a much better flavor when they are fresh and brown.

Small chicken hatcheries

For the twenty years we have lived here, I have always wanted my own chicken coops in the yard and a couple chicken hatcheries in our back yard pole barn. We have lots and lots of property to build even more space, and yet because even though we are out in the country, surrounded by corn, wheat and bean fields, it is still considered the “city limits” and we are not allowed to raise livestock in the city limits.  What I want to know is, what CITY?? I’m not sure what the population is here, but I know that the people in this small so called village, would only fill about 10 or so buses. And I’m sort of joking, but not by much.

I’ve always wanted the chickens in the yard type setting. I’ve wanted to be able to go out in the morning and collect eggs, and also I’ve wanted to raise chickens from the time they were laid to the time they hatched. To me, incubating them and watching the progress, would be simply amazing. It also would be really cool for my grand daughter and even my kids who are so much older, to be able to check out.

If I had a hatchery, it would be part of my dream for this place, come true. It is a shame to have all this property and not do anything with it. At least this way, we would have eggs, chicken to eat, and also chicks to sell. It sure would help with finances also.
