We have Embden type white geese and peafowl (once they start laying, and if we can find the nests!). 

If anybody is interested, PM me  :thumbsup: .

I have Light sussex for the first time this year - Just run the first hatch through the incubator and have 7 out of 10 fertility - first three hatched today.  Pm if interested.
If you cant beat 'em then at least bugger 'em about a bit.

In theory buff and gold laced Orpingtons, silver Appleyard and Cayuga ducks and possibly West of England geese. But the crows are nicking all my chicken eggs and I've yet to set any duck or goose eggs so time will tell whether I beat the crows (I have got the first lot of chicken eggs incubating) and how the fertility is looking for all.

Light Sussex(large trad strain),  Copper Black Marans (birds in their first year though so eggs a little smaller but I'm hatching from them right now), Exhequer Leghorn, Welsummer and in a short while Ixworth, Lavender Araucana , Cream Legbar (not up to standard, just blue layers, pet quality) and Rhode Red (very good).

Blue Swedish ducks but I haven't had a chance to check fertility yet this year as there is no power at the moment to the place where I keep my incy
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Scots Grey Large Fowl
Japanese Quail
Chinese Quail
Muscovy ducks
Bronze, white and pied turkeys

Japanese quail are hatching fine, the fertility and the egg numbers on the rest is still a bit thin and patchy
