I've been hearing a single crow coming from them. I haven't been able to catch who is doing it but I got a short video of them. These 3, the black and white ones and the red one are the ones I'm questioning on gender.
I got these awhile ago for free. My friend thinks they're all male. The breeds are a mixture so not sure how to tell. As of right now I'm not sure the ages either but I haven't heard any crowing yet.
I have a 3 month old cotton Patch female goose that is very aggressive towards my other livestock. The male is very gentle and sweet but the female will kill if she gets the chance.
Is this normal behavior? I read they were sweet and good with other livestock but this isn't the case with my...
I just switched from DuMOR 16% last week because my tractor supply was out! Must be one reason it started. I'll switch them back to it and see if it helps. I have some fake eggs that I can put in so maybe that would also help.

Temp was 95 and the humidity hit 99 at the highest at one point. I didn't add any more water as they were on lockdown with no touching from...
She's eating and drinking. I lost her brother tho. He had no visible injuries. I took her and her sister away from the Momma chicken and into recovery pin I use for bigger chicks. They're doing well so far. I've been keeping a very close eye on them.
As the tile says, I have more bad luck.
I have a mother chicken that hatched three duck eggs that she stole. Today they we're walking around the yard eating under their mother when one of the broody hens rushed off her nest and went over to starting to grab and pull one of the ducklings. The...
