    When do Ducks start laying?

    Is "spring" different for each area. Since I am in Colorado what are the Dates for Spring. I went out to the Ducks to look around and see if I could find any eggs, and I did!!! I found One. It was frozen so it is not from today.

    When do Ducks start laying?

    I am new to ducks, I was giving 13 mixed breed ducks. I have been reading an I keep hearing about Breeding season but I can not find out when Breeding season starts. Also when do Ducks start laying eggs? Thank you!

    Ready to hatch ?

    I have a Broody hen who has been sitting for 15 days. When I made my coop I did not think about if my hens go broody. Her nest is small just large enough for her to sit. It is also about 18" off the coop floor. I am worried about when the chicks hatch, do I need to have extra room around...

    Just went Broody

    Snow this early, is Mother Nature's way of making sure we are getting ready for Winter. Just a reminder of what is in store for us.

    Just went Broody

    I am new to chickens, I have a hen who has been sitting for four days. We are getting snow right now, I was not ready for this weather. It will be cold all week and then 70 this weekend. Does the hen need any extra heat? If she does hatch the chicks can they make it this late?
