poultry men/women specialists- i have a few questions?
winter is coming now in southern mn and we have cracked corn and i am wondering out of these poultry what is going to handle winter, cracked corn, and most likely to stay alive during winter. White Pekin duck, Rio Grande turkeys, Canada geese, or Khaki Campbell ducks? (they all come as chicks/goslings) Please explain your answer.
Cracked Corn will not be enough for any poultry to live off of. They need wheat,barley,corn......Any duck is a good duck! they are amazing for winter you don't need much to keep them warm other than a simple shelter. If you got them as chicks they will need a heat lamp for awhile till about 6-8 weeks old. after that make sure their new home has plenty of fresh straw, and they have plenty of fresh water. If your going to use an old bathtub for water make sure you add a brick in the bottom,because they can't get out other wise.
Duck are the easiest of all the poutry to raise....oh I missed your turkey question, turkey's are great in winter too ! but you have to keep a good watch out for disease with turkey's.
