Post by: Kier on July 16, 2008, 01:47:52 pm

Hey there I just joined this site and thought I'd better introduce myself and my family.I'm currently at college and live near brighton-West Sussex.My very close mate recently got some chickens and this finally convinced my family and I to get some.We have 2 light Sussex and 1 Maran pure breed chickens at roughly 12 weeks and living with them are our call ducks,We have a silver drake and an apricot female.
This is a picture of our call's in their bath while the pond was being fitted with its new pump/filter and some plants

Hi Kier and welcome.  I had six Call ducks until the fox came calling.  They are so cute and so naughty!! Hoping to get some more in our new house once the new pond is dug out. 

Welcome, and love your chooks as well.
