    Emu broke his leg...

    The others are protective of him. I can't get the tendon to stay put. He still moves around well enough to get to the food and water. I'm off to email a vet. Sent from my HTC One VX using Tapatalk 2

    Emu broke his leg...

    Thanks. I cleaned the wound. It appears the tendons have slid off the knee over to one side. I can pop them back over to the center of the leg and the leg then looks swollen but otherwise normal. I've taped the knee so it hopefully keeps everything where it needs to be. I currently have him...

    Emu broke his leg...

    I think. The emus have done well except for one of them. I don't know what happened but it appears one has a damaged leg. The knee is showing through the skin. The chick can get around fine by hopping. Should I leave it alone or bandage it or worse case.. amputate the leg. Any help or...

    Rainwater good or not ?

    It's better for them than city water. Think about it... No chemicals. You do want to be sure your collection point is clean. For example: I wouldn't catch rain off a freshly tared or shingled roof. I also think your water collection system needs to be bug and mosquito proof. The main thing...

    Geese + Ducks together?

    3 geese and 3 ducks. The love each other and fly together. The geese are always complaining that the ducks mess up their formations. Ironically the pig is the leader when they are on the ground. Sent using Droid.

    Are these mallards?

    I bought these ducklings months ago. I was told they were bantam call ducks. Based on the way they fly I doubt it. Is it safe to also assume these are a Trio? I have the two brown and one white.

    Welcome. If she appears to be OK I would let her heal separate from the flock. When you re introduce her be sure the others don't peck on her. Chickens adapt well. I take all unwanted roosters but I am a little far from you.
