    Default Nesting Boxes need checking!

    Hens are still at it! Clean those boxes out. Hens seem to be working overtime.
    I'm up over 200 hatched. Not a great hatch season but I hope it puts a bird or two in front of a youngsters gun this Fall.

    No telling how many ducklings have hatched in this 20 year old cypress box. I thought the scratch marks were pretty cool. We put a new predator guard on this box 2 years ago and it's still cranking out ducklings.




    Dump box. I had one hen hatch 21 out of a dump box so far this Spring. Unfortunately I'm sure bass, turtles and herons ate most of them.

    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.
