    collecting eggs for hatching

    I have 2 hen khakis, 1 Pekin hen and 1 pekin drake. I would like to hatch babies in the spring. I am hoping that at least 1 hen will go broody.

    ducks- non healing bumble foot.

    HI, I have been treating my Pekin with Tricide Neo soaks 5 mins daily and then painting with clear iodine for about 2+ weeks. I have seen minimal improvement. Any treatment ideas? Where can I get silvadene cream without a prescription? Thanks

    Chicken/Duck food question (layer feed ?)

    Is there a difference in layer feed for ducks or chickens? My ducks should start laying soon and I want to switch over to layer food.
