Hi everyone!! So when my duck breathes a whistling noise comes from his nose. He has pretty much always done this since he was a duckling, so I haven't thought much about it. However, recently I feel like it has been getting worse. Any idea on why this could be happening? He has access to water...
Hey everyone. Is my Boots a roo or a hen? Also anyone know what breed he/she is and have any tips on integrating my two chicks in with my other two hens. I put the two chicks in with my hens and they seem like they're always fighting and being bullied.
It feels squishy, like a balloon kinda. And it looks red too. I think I posted a picture of it earlier in this post. There's no feathers on that part either. I haven't tried giving her a bath yet, should I?
No there's no eggs in there, and the fluid keep leaking out of her... yuck! Her poop Is pretty small and liquidy, and a yellow color... kinda looks like diarrhea... she doesn't seem like shes acting sick, but she looks like it(I'm not sure if that makes sense) I hope nothings wrong with her. She...
Truthfully I'm not really sure about a lot of that. I got her from some lady I knew who has about 30 chickens on her farm and she gave her to me because my other chicken got really lonely when her coop mate died, so I'm not really sure how old she is and if shes ever been broody before. Shes...
Thank you to everyone that responded! She definitely Is broody. She has been sitting in the nesting box for DAYS and gets very upset when I try to go in the box. Does anyone know a way to brake her while she's in there? My other chicken gets really upset and makes the loudest squawks when she's...
Hey everyone
I have a chicken that's missing a whole bunch of feathers. Does she have mites? Hey belly is missing a lot of feathers and is very flaky and right under her vent she has a weird ball that feels soft, kinda like a balloon, and it's missing feathers as well and is red. Anyone have any...
Hey yall,
I live in Phoenix Az and temperatures here can get well over 110 degrees. Summer is just beginning and it's been in the 90's this week. I went out to check on my animals and my chickens seems uncomfortable and my duck was panting. They all have access to water and are shaded, but my...
Hey yall,
Anyone have any experience with having chickens/ducks when you have an Hoa that says no poultry? My Hoa says that but I've had my chickens and duck for a little over a year and haven't had any problems. I'm I just lucky lol?
Hi everyone, I have two baby chicks right now. I got them on April 6th and its April 29th now. I live in Arizona and its pretty hot here already, in the 90s and 80s. I've had them in my garage since I've gotten them and at first I had a light on them 24/7 but this past week and a half I turned...
Can I use iodine with color and can I put him in the bathtub with epsom salt? Will he get sick if he drinks the water? And if it's not bumble foot will the iodine hurt him at all? Sorry if those are silly questions, I'm new to ducks! Thank you
