http://www.rentthechicken.com/p/south-c ... tario.htmlI'd say rent 2 chickens but give them the space for 4 - 8 hens
as they'd likely gobble up all the grass in the caged area
before long.
Our eternal enemy when it came to keeping our ducks and ducklings alive were rats and weasels.Each night another duckling vanished.
rent-a rooster sounds cool but if theres another rooster
within 300 feet of your rooster and two hens the 2 cocks
will let each another know they're around.
Our farm neighbour has about a dozen or so hens on one side of the property and a rooster hundreds of feet away.His experience with those
incubating machines you can buy at TSC Villager is that the temperature
in them fluctuates too wildly.He tends to buy day old chicks
or just-ready-to-lay hens
And a flock of loudly quacking ducks in urban Milton
would probably freak out the neighbourhood when they
get the urge and start invading other backyards
