    Muscovy Waterlogged

    My muscovy has been water logged for the past month, my other two look great so I don’t know what’s happening. She just started laying a month ago, they eat all flock feed, sides of calcium & grit, and her preen gland doesn’t look off, but i’m not an expert. I also didn’t see any parasites on...

    I regret pea gravel, need advice.

    I only have 3 chickens and 3 ducks, the ducks sleep on the bottom in the nesting box, and the chickens sleep on one side and lay on the other. I also threw a 2x4 length ways across to act as a roost and they love it! I open the door and reach in to get their eggs, and sometimes the muscovy will...

    Introduction!

    Hello! I have actually been vegan for 10 years for ethical reasons but I suddenly got interested in owning muscovy ducks, I thought they would be great backyard friends since I also garden. And the more I thought about it, I figured i’d also like chickens so I got 3 of both, I let them grow up...

    I regret pea gravel, need advice.

    Hi yall! I planned my run to house 3 muscovy ducks & 3 chickens, the covered run just gives them extra protection at night while they are in their coop, and has their food/ water. I free range them most of the day & i’m in Texas. The issue is when I built it I heard pea gravel was great! All...
