    poopy butt

    I'm not sure what is going on? About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed a few of my chickens had caked on poopy butts. I washed everyone but they are still having runny poops.

    food and water at night

    my Muscovy ducklings are almost 3 weeks and are ready to come out of the brooder pretty soon. I see what a mess they make all night with the water and so much poop and wondered if they would be fine without food and water from 10pm-6am??? Or should I at least keep water in?

    7 week old calls

    I haven't heard a quack from either of them yet. Is it still early or should they start the voice change soon? Right now they both do a lot of gurgled raspy noises. I wonder if I have 2 boys?? Good for my neighbors but I was hoping to get eggs....I guess I'll wait a little longer.
