    Is my rooster ok without a heat lamp in winter?

    My rooster is the only chicken in the coop I have, and it's only november but starting to get cold out at night. Is he ok without a heat lamp if I put a warm fuzzy blanket into the nesting box for him to sit in, or will he still get cold and should I just install my heat lamp into it? thanks

    My pet duck appears to have tourettes? does it really PLEASE HELP ME!!

    thanks guys, but the weird thing is, she isnt making a noise. and she doesnt love being picked up, but she is by far the friendliest. she isnt old enough to lay eggs (about 3 and a half months) and she couldnt be trying to do anything with a drake because we dont have any of them. ...Is she just...

    My pet duck appears to have tourettes? does it really PLEASE HELP ME!!

    It kind of twitches its head to a specific point on its side repeatedly (in the same way each time, exactly like someone with tourettes!), even when the duck is hurriedly running away or is scared, aka from time to time but also in strange situations, so it probably isn't something that is just...
