    Thin-shelled inedible eggs

    We have two other chickens and they are laying normally although noticeably less than they used to, but that might just be because they’re getting older. We recently switched to a new feed, NatureWise Layer Feed 16% protein pellet to see if that would make a difference from the Dumor layer feed...

    Thin-shelled inedible eggs

    My two year old chicken, Toulouse, has been laying thin-shelled eggs for a while now. Sometimes they’re already cracked and oozing out in the egg box or when we crack them, we find the egg white is cloudy and the yolk doesn’t hold together. She is totally healthy looking and normal yet she...

    2 drakes and 1 duck

    My Peking is definately a drake because he has that quiet raspy sound. The little black duck is still peeping and has really colorful plumage (black, green, blue) so I'm assuming it's a he. The little brown duck is honking, so it's a girl. I've read a lot of disturbing things about males ducks...

    At what age can ducks live in an outdoor coop with chickens?

    My pekin is about 4 weeks and my two little ones are more like 3 weeks. My father wants to get them out of the house as soon as possible. When will that be? Will they be abused by the chickens?

    new baby ducks + 1 week duck

    Ok so i got my pekin, Ping who is around 1 week old some friends who are much younger. they are about 4 days old. So far they get along... Ping seems to protect them and show them around.

    Is my duckling sick?

    She died. It's really sad. Now my Peking is always crying for me and trying to jump out of the box. She's lonely. Should I buy another duckling so she can have a friend? If so, they won't fight right ? They should be around the same age right?

    Is my duckling sick?

    Update: Now, my khaki campbell is squacking in a congested way (sort of like a croak) as if something is stuck in her throat. I noticed some watery stuff coming out around her beak. It looks like throw-up. I recognize pieces of feed in it and little black circles... So im assuming that maybe...

    Is my duckling sick?

    thanks so much for the advice. So i think what i will do is buy some peas and try to find some vitamin b complex. i think it is best to put it in the water because she is only drinking water right now. I cant get her to eat. What is the best Vitamin b niacin form for water? the pills or the...

    Is my duckling sick?

    I just got two ducklings, a pekin and a khaki campbell. They were about the same size when I got them except the pekin was larger by a little. Now, after 5 days, the pekin has grown quite huge and the little khaki campbell seems so small and fragile in comparison. Also today I have noticed that...
