    Duckling Bedding

    Has anyone tried. Shredded coconut husk. We used to have a snake and we used to get these solid blocks of shreddedc coconut husk that would expand insanely and pretty instantly when you added water to them. The stuff took no time to dry after adding the water to expand. Snakes kinda have this...

    Need Input on Bumblefoot Treatment in Ducks

    Thank you all so much for the invaluable resource. My Cayuga developed a limp then a day or so later we noticed the bumblefoot on the opposite leg.We were able to confidently perform some investigative poking and started the healing process with your help. I was able to find microcyn ah instead...

    Can ducks lay 2 eggs a day?

    I am a novice as well but have been consistently getting at least two eggs a day from each of my khaki ladies and some days I get 2 from my Cayuga. They are just a year old this spring. All ladies seem healthy and happy so I assume that means we are doing well and getting great rewards for our work

    Refridgerate or kitchen counter storage

    Glad to know I am not the only "crazy person" who stores eggs on my counter. People look at you pretty funny here in North America when they see that.

    Egg storage

    We keep ours on the counter as per the Australian method. They last up to a month but are not as good after a couple of weeks. Don't forget the easier you are on the egg when washing or wiping away the dirt will leave more "bloom" on the egg and it will last longer.

    The khaki-Campbell duck Thread !!!!!!!!

    We have our ducks and chickens together and they seem fine. I will be honest we did have some drake on chicken action but nothing the ladies were not able to escape from. I have 9 kc's, 1 Cayuga and we had 6 hens down to 4 because of weezle and a rooster and we have never really had a problem

    The Duck Thread

It was so awesome, and fairly simple but What are your herding techniques? We cannot let the "run free" or they will run into the forest and/or get...
