Hello! My friends recently rescued 3 baby wood ducks! They are trying to find a place to take them, but in the meantime, anyone know how to care for them? Thank you!

Hi, I have 2 gerbils I'm trying to introduce to each other. I'm doing the split cage method and switch them in their cages every day so the get used to each others scent. But while Fleck (my older gerbil) seems interested in Cole, every time they look at each other through the bars, Cole tries...

Ok, so this hasn't ever happened to me, but my dad's family used to hatch mallard ducklings. Over time they hatched a lot of baby ducklings but only one batch survived. The other ducklings would flip over on their backs and die. So this isn't an emergency, just an unsolved mystery, and if it's...

So, today I was turning eggs and I thought I felt something move in one of two of them but I didn't thing much of it. Later, when I was going to turn eggs again, one of them pipped. Not much but it definitely did. Should I start lockdown?

Hi, I'm interested in acquiring some Coturnix quail, but I can't find a good place to order from. I've never ordered birds before so any info would be helpful, thanks!

Hey guys, this is rather unrelated to poultry, but I'm thinking of getting a gerbil. I've had mice before, but any advice?

Hi guys, I know this is a really silly question, but I'm asking you for your opinion on this question. Do ducks have abstract feelings such as love, sorrow, humor, etc? I have 8 ducks, and I just wanna know your opinion. Thanks!:pop

I raise both chickens and ducks, and now I am thinking about starting a flock of quail. I would wait until at least may to hatch them, but I like to research ahead of time. So any information about raising quail, pro or con, would be great, thanks!

The same day a fox (or coyote) took away FOUR of our drakes, our blue swedish duck decided to start incubating. They will be half swedish and half KC. So when they hatch, will i be feeding them all, including the mother, chick starter? And lastly, will Ping (our drake) bother the ducklings?

Finally, 2 ducklings hatched last night at supper! they were supposed to hatch sunday, but they decided to hatch Thursday, late.

So, today I found out that my barred rock chicken has decided she would like to raise a family. Now I wouldn't mind putting a few duck eggs underneath her, (We don't need more chickens) but we need the eggs. Does anyone know how to stop her from being broody?
