    *Post pictures of your duck pen/coop!!* :)

    We are in NW Ohio with chickens and are just starting our duck adventure with Pekin! Ours will free range our yard also, and I'm here scoping out ideas for coop/runs. I'm happy to see yours with snow! I was wondering how they'd do in snow.

    Thank you. The only thing is, it's a fenced in yard. There's no way other dogs can get in. That's what makes it so frustrating. :barnie

    Thoughts on what killed my girls?

    Let me preface by saying we have had chickens for three years. They have 1.5 fenced acres on which to range. There's an empty grassland lot on one side and field on the other two.

    Thought they were supposed to eat scraps??

    Is there a trick to getting your chicks to eat scraps? I have three 2 week old golden buffs (or golden comets or red stars or whatever you want to call them). I have tried giving them plain cooked green bean left overs, scrambled egg left overs, banana, tomato, and plain cooked hamburger and...
