    Rooster Overmating

    I have a couple roosters. One of them is harassing one of my hens. She is really stressed. I don’t want to cull the rooster. Can he be alone??

    Odd Duck Behavior

    I have a hen, who has been keeping her head and neck down; quacking a lot more than usual, and sitting lower to the ground. She will, also hold her mouth open for several seconds. She’s eating and pooping. She wash her tail, a LOT. She isn’t stumbling. I’m not sure what’s going on.

    Hen Stopped Laying

    27 weeks. The two that are laying. They don’t appear to be molting. But I’m so new to raising birds. I’m not sure if she’s laying somewhere else. The last egg I found of hers, was in the run…

    Hen Stopped Laying

    I have three hens. Two of them are of laying age. For some reason; one of them quit laying. It’s been about four days. They both look healthy and happy. I’m confused and a little concerned.

    Rouen Ducks Sex?

    You will definitely know if there are any males by their voice. It’s very different. Quieter and more “warbley.”

    Food/Water Placement

    I’m super new. Just started my flock this year. Where does everyone keep their birds’ food and water? I’ve been keeping it in their coop. They have access to water outside. But have to go inside for food.

    Egg Question

    I am curious; how do YOU store your eggs? I am super new, to all of this. I have heard, that you can just keep them on the counter, in a bowl; as long as you don't wash the outer shell? I have been rinsing, and putting them in the fridge.

    Odd Behavior- Mating

    I have 5 ducks. Two of which are older than the other three. They’re Swedish Blues and I’m not sure; but I thought one of them was male and the other female. My wife said she saw the “male” mounting the “female,” a few days ago. Today, I saw the “female” mounting the “male.”????
