losses and gains

Lost another jumbo last week, a male again. No evidence of any kind that I could find that explains it. No pile of feathers, no body, nothing.

To balance out the loss, there was some gain. First is two female Embden Geese named Fois and Gras.



Second is a single male African Gander named Pate.



Due to a mixup with the order, John Metzer of Metzer Farms where I purchased these birds threw in a female Pekin Duck named Lily.



John Metzer made no money on my purchase because I had a $25 gift certificate donated by John himself to the Guinea Fowl Breeder's Association where I won the certificate in a drawing. You bet I'll be making all my future purchases from Metzer Farms. Great businessman, and nice guy to boot.
