Ben's Birds
Oct. 4, 2008 - Moo!+baa!=?
Well everything doesent have to be about birds. Because we got two calves. Ones names Blossum and one Stella. Blossum is a Jersey and Stella is a Charlah. Jerseys are the best for milk and Stella is best for meat. Mmm steak. . We got them at two different places. I hope there doing well. Blossum won't be bred for a year. Stella hmm mabey we will breed her. We don't know. .
BYE BYE PEPPER!
Today we got rid of Pepper . But he might be coming back. (Pepper is our baby goat). If he comes back we'll have to put up posters. I hope he dosent sell. He's a mutt. Thats why I don't thing he's going to sell. . Nobody wants to see him go. He's the most playful goat. When we go to see him he's happy. Then when we leave he gets sad . Then he squeezes under the fence. Thats part why we want to sell him.

Oct. 3, 2008 - swan's
Swan's are pretty birds. But they're mean. Do not let any animal near this bird. My favorite is the black ones. But I watch as somone arproch this black swan it hissed. This was at a farmers market. They require a pond if your gonnna get one. Its somtimes best to get them as swanlings. So they get used to you. They may need to get cliped because some of them can fly. They can bite so becarful around them. These are very big birds. I asume they eat alot to. I don't know about there nails. It may be ok for geese to be with them. I don't know how many eggs they lay. But if somone know's please tell me. .

Oct. 3, 2008 - guess what? turkeys
I can't tell you much about turkeys but I'll tell you all I know. Turkeys are very big birds. They weigh 10- 25 pounds. Warning! do not let a turkey by a chicken, turkeys carry sickness to chickens. Once a chicken gets that sickness it drops dead. . Sorry that's all I know about turkeys.

Oct. 3, 2008 - ducklins
Well there's seven of them. They're muscovy ducklins. Some are black some are white some are black and white. They're just cute little fluff balls. We let them out once in a while. Once because when they set an eye on the adults they run to them. But the adults don't let them. So the adults peck them. But I'm not going to talk about the adults because they come later in this blog. We got a limp ducklin. But he's doing great. He can run really fast. |

Oct. 3, 2008 - The amazing thing
When I was walking to let the chickens out I looked at the hicsgas tank. It was a dove! and it let me hold it. It was so soft. But in 10-5 min. It flew off. It was so cool! I never held a dove before. |

Oct. 3, 2008 - About these birds
The muscovy ducks lay twenty to twentyeight eggs. They have wicked nails and some can fly. One of my friends got his truck scrached from these nails. If you're going to get these ducks look up info on the internet.
The jersey giant chicken is the worlds largest breed. But they are very friendly. They lay one egg every two days. They're a duel chicken. They weigh so much they cant fly. Well my chickens can fly. But they're not full grown.
IMPORTENT INFO!!!
Warning the muscovys nails are so sharp it can tear flesh. But these are wonderful ducks they are pro bug eaters. Thats why they fly. So they can catch moths and stuff.
Notice these chickens are so big they need a big space and think about the winter they have to stay in the coop for winter. But if the snow not so deep go ahead let them out. |

Oct. 3, 2008 - ducks
I also got some ducks and ducklings. I don't have any pictures of the ducklings. The ducks are also fun . But when you get too close to them QUACK!. They won't stop until you leave. But they're cool . We have two muscovys and four others. We don't know what the four others are. The ducklings are so little and cute. I don't like to call then ducklings I call them ducklins. They love to eat watermelon and tomatoes. Ok back to the adult ducks. The muscovys are so cool. The male muscovy can fly. The female can just barely. Now the moment you've been waiting for THE KING DUCK!!!. nope just kidding.

Oct. 3, 2008 - My Jersey giant chickens
I have five roosters and twenty hens. They are very fun.
They're three months old. In three more months they will start laying.

hey are free range. They're just starting to crow. They'll be 10-14 pounds where they're adults.
I have one show rooster that's named Buddy. He's growing fast. There used to be a rooster that was bigger than him named Kingy. But Kingy is the best crower. Buddy's on the bottom and Eggers is on the top.
