    How to set up a Pekin Duck Brooder??

    They have some stuff in and under, but ignore that. At night we cover up the wire part (which our cat sat on and broke) so they don't get to cold Hope I help!!

    My hen is acting motherly to chicks

    Well it sounds like she's gone past the sitting stage. You can try but it sounds like she's moved onto the baby chicks. And some chickens will sit and sit and sit Until a baby comes. She probably just wants a little one now

    Roster behavior questions

    Thats his way of saying "hey look at me". He's just being flirty with them. Nothing to be worried about. My roosters do it to

    My hen is acting motherly to chicks

    Sounds like you have a broody hen. It wouldn't hurt to give her a baby of her own if she's feeling motherly. Or even one of the baby turkeys. But if you do that it will be hard to separate the turkey from the chicken when there older. We have chickens raise ducklings because we didn't have any...

    They look like bantam crosses. Chicken little the 2nd, Leslie a polish. I think you have bantams cross polish. Hope I helped!

    both hens starting laying this morning - no shells

    Usually the first egg is like that. But if you think they need more calcium then give them some more

    Need to know breed of this grey chicken!

    huh! What you have there is an Arecarner (may not be spelt right) they are an amazing breed. My favourite. They can sometimes lay blue, green and rarely pink eggs!! If it's a hen. :) :D:D

    Duck Question

    As soon as they start laying you should be ready to hatch :) Maybe don't use the first 2 eggs tho. They can be deformed or a soft shell
