    Muscovy question

    One of our muscovy ducks has what looks like a rash on her neck. We had a huge possum on the porch a little over a week ago when she was nesting and thought he may have bitten her, but it hasnt healed up and now it looks more like raised bumps. Any ideas or suggestions? Oh, I don't know if you...

    Male or female turkey

    Our Pipi is about 6-7 months old. She is the only turkey in our flock of chickens, bantams, & ducks. We've thought she was a female but lately she has been exhibiting male behaviors...strutting, weird noises, dancing. She does not have a beard or spurs or nubs. We've been trying to get a couple...

    Turkeys fighting

    My in-laws' Toms have made their way to our yard where we have 3 6-week old turkeys. The two Toms normally get along fine but today are fighting terribly. Do you know of anything we can do? They are free range on our acreage and the babies are inside a fenced pen, but the Toms can fly in. Thank...

    Hurt chicken

    I have a hen who has started limping terribly. We think a goose got after her. I've held her and felt around her foot, leg, and hip like I would my dogs and she doesn't react (not sure what chicken would do 🤷‍♀️). I put her in a small dog crate for 2 days and then felt bad for her so I let her...

    TSC Bantams

    We bought these 7 from Tractor Supply to accompany our 7 full size hens. I'm curious as to their breed, but also if my guessing on sex is correct (see picture). If so, I may see if any friends would like to trade a male or two for females. Thank you.

    Bantam Rooster with pecked eyes

    Four weeks ago we were gifted 10 chickens - 1 Bantam rooster, 1 Bantam hen, 8 full size hens (Rhode Island Reds & Red Rangers). We had them in a makeshift coop to let them get acclimated to our place. Then the next week they gave use their remaining 3 (1 Bantam rooster & 2 Silver Wyandottes)...

    Limping Muscovy

    One of my female Muscovys has started limping. They got startled yesterday and I saw one fly into the barbed wire fence, but not sure it was her as she wasn't limping earlier today. Do I just need to watch her or is there something to be done? Thank you.

    Duck wings - is this just molting?

    We have 2 male Pekins, 1 female Pekin and 1 Indian Runner (just turned one year). Boys were literally killing my Runner (huge knot on her head, she refused to go near water, walked and shook head), so put the girls in a pen with ducklings for about 4 weeks. They had access to food and a small...

    Thanks for add. We are in south GA and have had chickens and Guinea. This is our first set of ducklings from Tractor Supply, so not really sure breed. So far we have had them about 3 weeks and things are going good. Meet Thistle, Avalon, Scarlett & Valerie.🦆💖
