So here are a couple better pictures of the tan ducks. There are two of them side by side and they are the ones closest to the camera. Someone suggested Rouens? Are they male? They are all starting to get a white ring around the neck. All of my ducks came from Sand Hill Preservation Center.
The green headed ones that are mostly white should be Welsh Harlequins. I was sent six Welsh Harlequins and watching them grow that's what they have to be. It is the brown/ tan ones that I have no idea what they are. There are actually three of those brown/ tan ducks and I was told that I was...
Pictures one and two are the same duck. Is it a male Saxony?
Pictures three and four are for the dark ducks. Picture three is the duck on the far right facing to the left. Picture four is the two ducks facing to the right that are dark and closest to the camera. I had ordered three Silver...
I have a duckling that was hatched on 6/7/16. He or she is active, eating great, drinking, and getting around essentially on one leg. It's leg is turned backwards at the joint and the toes are pulled together. I have tried splinting it and that is not working. I am having a difficult time...
I did my meat birds in a 10'x 10' chain link dog pen with a sturdy top on it and then we secured boards with tarps on the sides to roll down in inclement weather. I left the door of that open at all times and surrounded the whole thing with electric poultry netting from Premier1. I have a...
I have been doing some research online and have read a few posts from people that say that they feed medicated Purina rabbit pellets at certain times of year for coccidia prevention. I am trying to find where you would buy rabbit pellets that are medicated. Can anyone direct me? I live in MD...
The lighter chicken was hatched on June 8th and the darker one was hatched on June 15th. At least they are pretty even if they are not what they are supposed to be. The Swedish Flower pullet is a week younger than the lighter chick in question.
Thank you in advance.
Yes, he is definitely not a rex or satin -- he just has a regular coat. I didn't think about 4H kids tatooing at all. Thats makes sense though. He was definitely handled and is probably my most friendly rabbit so it would make sense he was shown in 4H. Thank you for that I have been going...
My friend called to ask if she could give her nursing doe Baytril for a runny nose. I think the kits are about 3 days old now. I told her I did not have a clue, but would ask online. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
So I have been still doing the mineral oil and the rabbit is miserable. I have some Revolution and have looked up the dosage-- but can I put it on a pregnant doe-- how about a nursing doe? If I cannot put it on a pregnant doe how long do I wait after I apply it can I rebreed her?
Thanks
Do a search for Bumblefoot. I worked with an Orpington myself for several months, but the infection finally spread up her leg into the bone and I had to put her down. There is some great info out there with pictures. If you want to spend the money there are exotic vets out there that can do...
I have a 8 yr old pygmy goat that only lived with horses and dogs till last September. Yes-- I had the only goat that tried to kill all other goats. She would play with my dogs for hours, go with us on walks, jump up in the truck with my dogs to go on rides. Then when my dogs and I would...
I believe that my new rabbit has ear mites. I noticed that her ears would sometimes have a bit of pink to them and then when I would check back later they would look normal again. I finally looked inside and saw some crust far down in the canal. Because she is pregnant I do not want to risk...
Thanks-- I feel I definitely have two boys now. I stuck them in together and they basically are fine with each other taking turns occasionally to hump the other one's head. But no one seems to mind. They are definitely not rabbits.
