Rose comb. Thinking slw cockerel as well. He's beautiful but he's already a little snarky!

. Got this cutie at the feed store and have no idea what he/she is. Thinking male from thickness of legs. Any ideas?

oh, the puppy pad is a good idea. I have the waterer in a pan as well but the surrounding litter (like two to three feet away) still gets soaked!

Thanks! And no, not planting season, but work. I'm a nurse and we're very understaffed right now, I work 14 hours then come home to lonely, messy ducklings! off to bed and do it again.

Thanks everyone!

Aw thanks! I'm just straight out, I can't fit a drive in! If I weren't so crazy busy I would never be giving them away. I was just playing with them and they're so amazing.

I've tried the regular chick waterer and a milk jug with a hole. Any other ideas?

I wish you were closer too! They are just soo cute!

I don't know, my sweet little ones get the whole huge brooder wet....seemingly in minutes! OK, I'll keep cleaning

Hi guys, The weather here is supposed to be great this weekend. I'm planning on putting my almost four week old ducks outside during the day, can I leave the water out of their brooder overnight then? They are sooooo messy (as you all know) and I would love a few days break from twice daily...

So I have 3 silky ducklings I hatched from shipped eggs. They are about 2 weeks old now. They are so very cute, but not very friendly. Is this normal for ducklings? They remind me of the pheasants i hatched last year. When anyone approaches the brooder they all run (like they are running...

MIne took short swims on day 2. I didn't need a bath tub though, they were soooo small! I used a little basin.

C'mon little duckies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't panic, I read a fascinating article on hatching duck e g g s, I wish I saved the link. It said the usual progression was that the duckling would internally pip, then eventually externally pip, then the duckling rests for about 12-36 hours before zipping. I noticed most of my eggs took...

sit on those hands, take another walk, read all the posts that are SO much more funny with the word e g g replaced by rooster (I particularly like the one about the chicken who laid a soft shell rooster and now all the hens are eating roosters) Keep us posted!

I'm sorry, I know this is a serious question, but it's striking me as so darn funny. My chickens have NEVER layed a rooster, my rooster on the other hand.................
