    Duck died

    I had posted a while back about my Welsh Harlequin having some watery/foamy poop. I had quarantined her for a couple weeks, until she was eating and drinking like normal and no more funky poop (that only lasted one night). She seemed so much better, but obviously was not. When do you all decide...

    Foamy poop

    My female Welsh Harlequin was having clear poop with foam in it the other day. I separated her from her sisters and she's been living it up in my kitchen for the past three days. Eating, drinking, and still loving her fresh veggies. She appeared to have gotten weak (would waddle, then lie down...

    Not molting...what is this???

    My hen is about a year and a half. She has looked like this for over six months now. At first, I suspected she was just molting, but that's definitely not the case for how long it has been going on. We do have a rooster, and although his mounting her doesn't help the situation, she was looking...

    How soon is "too soon" to head outside?

    Our Silkie hatched three chicks on November 20th. Sadly, we had a daredevil who got a bit too brave and ended up drowning in the big girl's watering bowl. After that, I brought the remaining two inside with my Silkie. They've been living in a pack n play, in the living room, which has been...

    Two female Cayugas for sale in Colorado

    Hi friends! So after much thought, I have decided to sell two of my femakeCayugas. They were bought as day olds in May. I just miss my Ancona boys, Morgan and Belvedere, who both died last May. I just miss them so much and want to add two male Anconas to my flock. But in order to be fair to my...

    Not a single duck is laying!

    Hi friends. I have four female Cayugas, one female Rouen, and one unknown breed female (I rescued her from a farm as she had a broken leg and was about to be culled). They are all over ten months old now and have NEVER laid one single egg. They should have started last summer and didn't. I...

    Ducks not laying

    Hi fellow duck lovers! We have six ducks: four Cayugas, one Rouen, and one that we rescued and have no idea. They are all over six months old and not one is laying yet. They are on Nutrena layer feed, have grit, oyster shell, scratch grains, and fresh fruit and veggies daily. I also give them...

    Silkie in pain while laying?

    Hi friends! I have five hens who are about 5 months old. Only one has started laying, my Polish hen, Gertie. My question is: is she in pain when she lays? I ask because she hoots and hollers for about two to three hours, pacing in and out of the coop, until she finally lays her egg. Then she's...

    Toys for ducks???

    I have two Anconas. They are three months old. This may sound silly, but they seem bored with just their pool and foraging around. They would rather follow me or my yellow Lab around, and trust me, we're not THAT interesting! ;) Will they play with toys like my sister's chickens do? What toys...
