    Chicken with a fever

    Hi there, I'm new to the world of chickens, we have 6 Rhode Island Reds that we got in April. So this is our first winter with them. We haven't had cold weather at all until this past week or so. I noticed one day that it looked like a few of the girls had some frostbite on their combs, so I've...

    Advice!! Beef Grower???

    So at my feed store you go in and request your items and pay at the counter, then take your receipt to the warehouse and the guys load it in your vehicle for you. I went about three weeks ago for chicken grower. I thought it seemed dustier than usual and wondered if the bag had been pounded...

    Blind Duckling?

    I'm about 90% sure one of my Rouen ducklings is blind. He doesn't flinch or move away like the others do when approached by a person, he walks into walls and falls off the ramp into the kiddie pool. He seems to be managing to find the food and water, but he's always separated from the rest of...

    Hello from Ontario!

    Hello! I'm new to this site and just wanted to introduce myself! I have six Hisex Brown laying hens, and recently acquired 5 ducklings that I have no idea what I'm doing with, lol. They're Rouens and Khaki Campbells I was told. So far we are loving life with birds! Will definitely be on here a...
