    Cayuga Ducks First Eggs

    I have a Cayuga Duck who is very skittish. I mostly let her be to herself and her two beaus. Yes, I know you should not have 2 drakes with 1 female, but that was the luck of the draw. She seems to have mated with the Pekin and the littler male duck just follows around protecting her from...

    Thst was the question in my original post. She is there when they wake up. She is there all the time. Just thought they would have worked this out by now. Thank you anyway for trying.

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    When this started, her entire butt was bare and her neck. She looks good now and they still don't like her. She just sits up on that corner all alone.

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    [/IMG]Ok I tried to get a good picture but she is perched on the top of the co-op and honestly looks mostly healed. Only a tiny bit of bare skin showing.

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    LOL i will try. Her feathers are growing back now, her butt being the last section to grow back. I will go out to see if she will let me photograph her nakedness. LOL.

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    I am not in the south. I am in Ohio, which is why it concerned me that she lost her feathers on the coldest day of January. My chickens, believe it or not have never molted before. They are 3 yrs old. The chicken in question has already begun growing her new feathers back in...which is why I put...

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    ...anyone? I went out to check on her this morning, and as soon as I open the door, she runs as fast as she can to get out. This just isn't right.

    Shunned Chicken...HELP!

    I have read a few other stories on here, but mine is a bit different. I have 8 chickens in one coop. The other half of the coop has 3 ducks. All 8 chickens have been together since day 1. On the coldest night of the year, "naked butt as we have come to call her, decided that would be an...

    How to reintroduce a hen after injury?

    How long can you keep a hen out of the flock? I have a late-molting hen who is bare on the bottom and missing some from her back and neck. The others were not letting her eat, so I brought her in to feed and keep from freezing in this January weather. I took her back to the coop today and they...
