Well if I seemed AWOL the last day or two, it's wifey's fault... She picked up a bunch of 1 day old duclings. The nex day she picked up 20 or so chicks (buff orfingtons, Rhode Island reds) and put them all together. Wifey didnt know that the ducklings 'bout double in size every day, and within a week, they was trampling the chicks! She wanted a duckling pen done 'bout yesterday, but wasn't really sure where she wanted it, and it had to have a pond for them to swim in. Now I aint one what likes doing somthin twice, 'specially if it involves diggin. My mind kinda chewed on the problem a bit, and decided what I needed was a movable pen, with a moveable pond! So the duck truck was born. Makin it mobile allows me to spread the stinky over the whole yard, fertilizin as I go (wink)

you forgot the motor and remote control.
Looks like you are starting an Animal Farm. You needs a good mule to help out with the heavy stuff.

The drakes will be culled just for that... the hens will give us lots of eggs. Next year we'll hatch our own, and sell them as well.
