    Raccoon attack :[ so sad right now!

    My runners were attacked by a raccoon yesterday evening. Two are fine, one passed, and one is injured. My poor girls!!!! I'm looking for advice for my injured duck. She can't really stand on one side, she has a scratch down her front side, and a pretty bad wound on her neck. We brought her...

    Did they sell me drakes? Do hens ever rasp instead of quack?

    Yikes. Trouble with the gosh darn feed store. First they sold me a khaki campbell and said it was a runner. I had a feeling something wasn't right but I thought she'd straighten out or something with age. But nope. She's definitely a khaki campbell but of course I got attached so...what to do...

    Ugh. Poor dog.

    Any rescue groups in your area? They may have resources or ideas. Totally stinks in the meantime. That's so awful, I can't imagine treating a living creature that way.

    My blue runner definitely looked a bit more gray as a babe. That one looks a LOT like my chocolate...

    One of these things is not like the others...

    Would a Muscovy hen do okay with Runner hens? Will she feel left out? Will she have a complex because she's different? Will the other ducks pick on her and make fun of her acne?

    rats. RATS! help! giant rats!

    Thanks! Possibly will look into professionals, but we're young students without a lot of moolah. We're also enviro-nerd hippies and not super into the idea of using chemical poisons..."safe" or not, I just don't like the idea... But I'm so conflicted! The last thing I want is to wake up...

    Sexing Muscovy ducklings

    I have two baby runners that are the same age, so yes, friends! Of course I'm not sure the runners have learned that they aren't chickens yet...but that's another story altogether.

    Sexing Muscovy ducklings

    I'm going to pick up a Muscovy duckling, but I want to make sure I choose a girl. Vent sexing makes me nervous...are there any other tells I should be looking for? The ducklings are about 2 weeks old.

    chick down! should I worry about the other? is it my fault?

    I had an americauna and a barred rock baby in our brooder with two runner ducklings. We were planning on separating them once we got our split brooder finished this weekend. We just got them last friday, they were a day old. We cleaned the box at least twice a day, made sure everyone was warm...
