5 eggs from my 6 female ducks!

Could you send an image of it's back pattern please? I think it's a SLW.

Ah! Dang! Very pretty bird though.

Is that a Malay or Shamo?

x2!

That's good! I hope she gets better in those few days. Fill me in on her health if you can!

Yep! She's my hen, Freckles.

Lol, yay!

Thank you! It is funny how one can love a chicken, ha ha. I also read about the different types of crop infections/diseases online. Not many questions under the Emergencies/Diseases/Injuries/Cures section are answered. It's unfortunate. I try my best, though. I'm going to look further into...

Crevecoeur cockerel with his hens?

Hawks and Eagles are beautiful, and they're good for the environment. I am capable of understanding the fact that they just want to survive by thriving off my ducks. I do not like them more than chickens, and I believe they are a pain at points. Regardless if it is for survival, I dislike them...

That's the best thing to do - make them feel more safe in their environment again as they once did. It is always good to caress them, maybe visit them in their coop here and there and show them that you mean no harm and your only intention is to protect them. My hens trust me after a long time...

I am actually convinced that it is a Cochin trait. I previously had another Cochin whom did the same thing, and died because of his age and an injured leg that finally got the best of him. My current Cochin is doing the same thing at the moment. If there are no signs of him being ill, I believe...
