    Easter eggers, hen or rooster?

    The olive egger (gray) is 10 weeks. The Easter egger is 9 weeks. Thanks so much! :)

    Currently none, but I’m guessing it’s going to be a single :)

    What breed is this?

    Hey, what breed is this little chick? She/he was given to me as a rescue because of a wonky leg that will never heal. I’m thinking olive egger, but not certain... I’ve never seen a grey chick like this! (In case you were wondering... wearing a cast on the leg to prevent rubbing, and a sock to...

    **URGENT** Orphaned Baby Mouse

    It’s just due to age. All little ones this young are wobbly :) She will make a great pet.

    Duck and chickens together... feed problems

    Hi, I have 7 two month old ducklings and five chickens. How do I manage giving everyone the correct feed? Right now the chickens dive at the grower feed, and the ducklings eat mostly the grower but sometimes nibble at the layer. I’ve been giving the chickens extra oyster shell for this, but is...

    I warm very small amount of syrup and then dip the tip of the syringe in. You don’t need a lot of syrup, just enough to get the little guy going onto the formula :)

    Sadly, no... although that’s a great thought. I forget exactly why but apperantly it thins out the electorolytes in the pedialite or something. I usually give an 100% electrolyte feeding for the first 2 feeds, then slowly transitioning (75% pedialite and 25% formula next feeding (two...

    Yeah, glucose is very important as it keeps energy up. I usually use warmed pancake or maple syrup and just put a dab or two on the top of the syringe. It usually helps them stay active and jump starts their systems. Same with electrolytes (unflavored or vanilla infant pedialite is the best).

    Peanut the Jenday

    Beautiful, but I think he’s a sun conure or maybe a SunDay (hybrid)? Conures are the sweetest little snugglebugs, I have a canary wing parakeet (similar species to green cheeks and Quaker parrots). Can’t imagine life without my little baby bird by my side.

    The formula for the heavy cream and KMR: 1.5 cups water 1 cup PetAg (she used Esbilac) 1/4 cup heavy cream You sadly can’t use heavy cream until they open their eyes though, or it causes bloat. If he survives til then (sadly unlikely, these little ones are VERY VERY VERY hard to save), it will...

    No, that will cause bloat and metabolic bone disease (improper calcium phosphorus ratio) . Kitten milk replacer is formulated for carnivores and is more than enough protein for mice.

    I’m a wildlife rehabilitator of small mammals (mostly squirrels) and would be happy to help. You have quite the challenge on your hands, best chance is to get it to a wildlife rehabilitator but if that isn’t an option you will need to hand raise. Kitten milk replacer is the closest, best way to...

    Crested duck breeding...

    LOL I love it. It’s even funnier now! I’m hoping to breed him with a welsh harlequin to get some silly litte crested, speckled ducklings:love
