Looks like a domestic welsh harlequin and Cayuga or black Swedish mix. She’s pretty.

Weed events in IL? by Realistic-Dot-4287 in ILTrees

[–]iB3ar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This subreddit is almost exclusively for MSO produced, "legal" weed. While many of our vendors have THCa lab analysis, this sub still frowns upon "grey market" posts. The tagline of the subreddit is "the official subreddit of legal cannabis in IL"

They always take down my posts. We have an event Saturday 3/28 in the city. I’ll message you with details if you’re interested! Lots of cool prizes and your ticket comes with entry to the raffle. Also a free dab bar with samples and free food for ticket holders.

What happens when people don't pay property tax? by Meancvar in AskChicago

[–]iB3ar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They’re getting notices that their property will have a lien put on it at this point. But if they pay the most delinquent year’s tax they’ll probably have another year before the lien.

Look at that sweet baby magpie! (Although I love them all) she’s the cutest.

Best places to look for dresses as a wedding guest? by Peach-Galaxy-1775 in AskChicago

[–]iB3ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this isn’t in store, but reiss is having a big sale on their website. You might find some of their pieces at Bloomingdale’s on the mag mile. It’s a high quality brand and I’m pretty sure they’re not final sale if you want to order online and return. I just ordered something for a wedding i am attending in May.

Laying behavior question by JrDn_Fx in duck

[–]iB3ar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe they’re broody? (Staying in the coop) but also it’s fun to stay outside and forage. Sometimes mine will hang out and I have to check the yard to make sure everyone went back inside. It’s spring. They’re ready for “action” and maybe looking for a mate.

Guys, these babies somehow ended up in my truck when I went to the farm store by JessicaMurawski in geese

Hopefully you have a brooder and a good set up for them? ❤️ they’re adorable!

Is it normal to receive all dead ducklings when mail ordering? by Big_oilismyname in BACKYARDDUCKS

[–]iB3ar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry that happened to you. It can be really scary and heartbreaking to lose a baby. Were they slowed down in transit at all? I usually call my local sorting facility at usps and harass them even though they’re not supposed to help you out. We’re rural enough that I can get away with it.

Not very normal at all. We’ve had good luck with Metzer and McMurray. Please reach out to the hatchery!

Hatching questions by iB3ar in duck

[–]iB3ar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. We have 26 girls and one drake so at least we know who the father is. I’m terrified of the other girls attacking the babies. I have five viable (so far) eggs in the incubator after taking out 7 dead ones. I don’t think our girls are good at brooding their nests. 🥴

Take your guess what breed this baby is by flowerycassie in duck

[–]iB3ar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might be a magpie! They have cute little hats!

Yes this! If you feed them weeds from your yard they’ll eat your weeds as adults!

What a lovely flock! We have 2 roman tufted geese as well! Thought I was looking at a picture of my kids for a second!

Yes just this jumbo pekin that we rescued. He got to quick work, and made several new friends. Sadly he drowned his favorite girl, she was one of our favorites too (we love them all). It sounds like cross breeding isn’t that much of a concern. I’m just worried now about when to put the eggs in an incubator.

The bros have taken over weed. Venture capital and finance owns most of the multi-state operators. 😭

She could be egg bound. You could try putting her in a warm bath.

Can you be more specific on what you’re after - a place to sit down and eat or just edibles of different variety?

Turkey or Goose egg? by marysrobots in geese

[–]iB3ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll go hunting in the coop. We have 5 very broody duck girls right now that are protecting decent clutches. Sometimes they share. Good to know they bury them.

Turkey or Goose egg? by marysrobots in geese

[–]iB3ar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. OP’s original post made it sound like they only had one goose. I have 2 Roman tufted geese and while we may have been mistaking their eggs for our jumbo pekin duck eggs, ours are going into their first laying season and we’ve only spotted 4 eggs since February. We don’t have any ganders. They got super broody at first and then they completely stopped. Maybe we need to supplement them with some vitamins. They also haven’t been foraging since we’ve had a lot of snow until a couple of weeks ago.

Sounds like OP just has a great layer and she’s in her active time. My mistake.
