No not like that... I just mean I think maybe your right I live in San Angelo. We have an A&M Research center here. I am waiting for a call back. There is no treatment for that. It will be impossible to contain with my set up..... and we do have a heavy wild turkey population in this area. So...

I have read up.... this is upsetting!

No water fowl. Only chickens. Can you tell me more about Merks?

Thanks, they were kept separate for what I thought was an appropriate time.

Can someone help me please ? I have posted on illnesses and disease and need some responses from people in the south. Please!? I was given some broilers a few months ago, never have had broilers. Let them run with my flock for a couple of weeks and noticed one of them had lost a lot of weight...

I was given some broilers a few months ago, never have had broilers. Let them run with my flock for a couple of weeks and noticed one of them had lost a lot of weight. Before I knew it they had all died. I assumed it was the breed. My flock free ranges, broilers are big meat birds. I just...

Thank you. The place she is sitting is a good place because it is up high. The only problem is it is on top of a free standing rabbit hutch that is about to be moved out of the coop for the warm season.

I brought home a batch of chicks from a science hatch project in my husbands classroom. It is the first time we have hatched from our own hens. They are being kept on the upstairs part of our coop seperate from our flock. The hens were very interested of course. I was away for a weekend and when...

you sound as onery as me...

Anything will work. They just need somewhere covered to perch to protect them from preditors.

Maybe keep some water and food around for them if you havnt. I'm surprised they have stayed on that long. I hope they will sit them out for you. We are overran with ticks also.

Tomorrow when I am around wifi I will post pictures that I took today. I think that you picked ok. My Cauyga seems to have slowed down in growth and is more like the largest mallard in size and body type. The Pekins are much bulkier and just are a bigger bird in general I think.

My phone is misbehaving I guess I'll try to send them via message

Well!!! I had always compared the Cayuga to the Pekins while they were little but now that you mention it and I have good pictures to show you of everyone side by side I think it is a female for sure looking at her face and tail feathers and it is more the size of our large mallard which I also...

Mine are abou mine are about the same actually. Here are some pictures I took this morning. I will try to take some more of the Cayuga next to the Pekins. You can see the Pekins playing in the water in the background. When they stand together the Cayuga is more graceful and less clumsy but...

Star... I am so sorry I have not responded to this. I saw your message the day you sent it but I had a ROUGH week at work! Anyway... Since you have had your ducklings a week since asking this question you probably have figured out some of the answers. All water fowel grow super fast! All the...

I agree. :) bedding can be tricky with all small animals.

Critter projects are never through... I expect to always have improvements :). This is a country thing built from scraps not somthing bought.

that is the ledgend anyway... Not based on fact :) but here is my Cayuga! The picture at the water was a couple of days ago. The others are about a month old. It's grown since. I will try to get a new one in the sunlight.

this is a repurposed kids playhouse... The bottom had only two walls one to the south and one to the west originally. I will leave the half wall to the north on the bottom... In the winter I can tarp the top. eventually to the east will be a good size yard and run. "Eventually" lol not sure if I...
