yes i agree!! i would love to make a whole new enclosure for the drakes, just having trouble finding something but that is definitely my top priority:)

they were doing great just the 3 males and 6 females! no problems at all. i’ve been keeping them away from eachother during the day, i have two fences so i have an enclosure for the girls and on male in the day and the boys on the other side. it’s working well, but i only have one duck house...

hey guys so recently i went to a farm and they had two male ducks there. they had angel wing and they decided to give them away because it is a petting farm. i took them home out of shear love for all types of poultry birds and am now realizing i didn’t think about the male to female ratio; i...

i’ll get a picture for you! she’s doing okay, she hasn’t eaten much from what it looks like but i’ve been changing her bedding and water and food everyday. i just took her wrap off to let it air and am going to go in with the disinfectant again in an hour or so and wrap it. she was wheezing a...

hey guys so a little back story my one duck had a small scab on her back neck from mating with a male (TMI) but it was absolutely nothing to worry about. anyways this morning after i let the ducks out a flock of crows attacked her (my australian shepherd ran out and saved her) and pecked at her...

yes this is only a short term fix i just need something to buy me till sunday or at the earliest tomorrow. thanks so much! i have older chicken starter (medicated) can i give them that?

all out of hay!! i unfortunately won’t have someone able to bring feed till sunday, maybe tomorrow if i’m lucky. i have 15 chickens !!

hey everyone, yesterday i ran out of feed for my chickens and goats, my parents flight is delayed and i don’t drive so i can’t go to the farm and get more feed. i need to stretch it out till sunday, is there anything i can give them from my kitchen, that will fill them up and keep them okay till...

what is that? how should i treat it?

one of my chickens is acting a little weird and a few of them seem to be molting. but nothing alarming. it isn’t watery blood it’s almost orange?

hey everyone i went outside to hangout with the chickens while they roamed and found they’re poop like this. my older chickens have never had cocci disease before. but my younger ones have. is this cocci? what should i do ????

okay yes i think this is probably the most realistic decision. as the only thing that is wrong is the fact that she puked which i suppose is not uncommon (another thing i forgot to mention was i gave her some eggs with pumpkin that morning, but it happened that night so i assumed it was too long...

okay thanks so much, hopefully she’s all better in the morning after all this. i really hope it’s not worms but i ofc have no idea so we’ll see. your tips have been great !!
