So as the title says I have some Cornish cross with RI. I know must will just dispatch them and call it a day. But if I do treat the infection once cleared up would they be safe to eat? Of course after withdraw time ect. They aren't at the size to off them just yet anyway.

My guess is rooster, what do you think? He's almost 5 months.

I think some sort of Old English Game. At first some said self blue. Don't think that is right looking at her/him now. My daughter is really hoping this is a girl, but at 2 months and that read comb and waddles tells me boy. What are your thoughts on breed and sex?

Just today we noticed my olive egger limping. Picked her up and notice one foot swollen. i used the tip of my nail to scrape off some dirt and out popped the kernel. You can see the hole it left. My questions this is bumblefoot correct and what else do I do? I'm googling and searching on here.

I'm having a hard time finding duck egg cartons. I ordered some off of Ebay as it said Duck,goose and turkey eggs. They are way too big for my duck eggs. I have large and extra large cartons in the house for my chickens eggs. But my Pekins eggs won't fit in those. She's only just starting and...

We got our first duck egg on Sunday. So exciting and now I have few questions. It's a pretty little white egg. I'm guessing one of my Pekins, I don't think it's my Welsh Harlequin as she is just a bit younger. Anyways, since ducks don't always lay eggs where you want how do you all deal with...

Does the broomstick method work well on ducks? We have a few meat ducks and trying to figure out our options.

I swear I had 3 black musovy duckling and 3 chocolate. Now we were watching them outside. I'm like didn't we have 3 chocolate and 3 black? My daughter was was sure too. We go back looking for pictures and for some darn reason I can't find any the day they hatched. I clearly have 4 black and 2...

I'm thinking these two are both cockerels? I caught one this morning crowing but not 100% which one. I'm think it was the one with the more gray in his tail.

I have 6 muskovies that are 2 months old. I have never seen them go in the pool like our other ducks. Do they not like to swim?

Trying to convince myself that there is still hope this one is not a boy. What are your thoughts? Satin silkie 13 weeks

I was in the process of making my ducklings (are they still called ducklings at 10 weeks) a bigger water container. Right now I fill a smaller 1 gallon tub whenever I see it empty or gross. I was going to get a bigger container and connect it to a 32 gal garbage can and have it self fill. My...

If you could only keep two Drakes from the following breeds which one would you choose and why? 1. Rouen could be mallard I can't tell the difference 2. Cayuga 3. Indian Runner 4. Kahki Campbell

I picked up most my ducklings from TSC. If you look at the gray/blue not sure what that colour is called. I thought they were runners, now the last picture is of the fawn coloured one stands taller then the others that are older. Are the blue ones runners?

We went out to check on our ducklings for the second time today. Clyde was in a corner and breathing heavy and his head flopping. We brought him in right away minutes later he died. We had one last night limping and she is still limping today I gave her some niacin in her mouth and put more...

I have 9 new ducklings that I picked up on Wednesday. I bought some liquid B Complex from walmart as I can't for the life of me find the amount of niacin in Dumor chick starter. How much do they need the box says it contains 20mg per mil and the easiest way to give it to them? I saw the soak...

My silkie has 5 chicks they are about a day old. Temps are crazy here lately its been 60-73 this past week. Tonight it's supposed to drop down into the 20's. Should I take them in the house? Adding, she adopted did not hatch them just in case that makes a difference.

Hi everyone, I've been reading and learning all about ducks. I'm wanting to get set up for ducks and have a few questions. I'm in central Arkansas so hot sticky in the summer and short somewhat cold winters. We do get freezing and a bit below for a very brief time. I know to build as big as...

When they say sex links lay all winter long is that with or without light at night? Is this only in their first year or for all their years until they just slow down from age?

I'm pretty sure this girl is not considered black, but as I have no experience with this breed I could be wrong. I bought 4 FBCM eggs to hatch, 2 developed and hatched. 1 turned out to be a rooster and this girl now 9 1/2 weeks old. My biggest question is, is she a Maran and what is her colour?
