    7 weeks old muscovys...sex??

    I I have three seven week old Muscovy's that are all the same exact size so I have nothing to compare them to for sexing. They all have the same feather development and stature. One is more of a loner but they all make a chirping noise as they walk around when they're content. Is...

    Muscovy duckligs...leave them with mom or take then inside????

    **UPDATE** I went out in the yard prepared to "save" my ducklings and what I witnessed changed my mind. Not only had the chickens seemed to lose interest, one of the ducklings(I'll assume this one is a male) has taken to chasing the flock of hens around the yard. I find it hard to believe...

    Muscovy duckligs...leave them with mom or take then inside????

    My boyfriend's from Virginia and often makes fun of my "cold" comments..haha! I know it's not really cold...just cold for them. And the mom is on the younger side, not quite sure how young though. She's a first time mom. The area they're kept in is about 25x40ft for 7 chickens and three ducks...

    Muscovy duckligs...leave them with mom or take then inside????

    I had three hatch yesterday morning and left them with their mom overnight. I live in southern California and the weather is a little bit colder then normal right now...but the low is still only 50. She didn't get off them until this afternoon and now she just wants to roam the yard with them...

    Hen with spurs "attacking" all my other hens

    I have what looks like a penciled hamburg who has grown spurs. She always seemed kind of wild and never joined the rest of the flock. She climbs/flies up the wisteria and lays her eggs on the lattice over our patio where it's impossible to get them. My boyfriend just noticed the spurs a few days...

    Specked sussex and Wyandotte

    4 weeks!! I'm sorry, it's been a long week. I think I was thinking about a month and then decided to go in terms of weeks instead and mixed the two.

    What gender would you guess the speckled sussex is? It's about 4 months old. And are the other two wyan dottes?

    Fowl pox and permanent reduction in egg production??

    That works perfect because I have goats and have a bottle of the wormer you mentioned in the fridge. I'll give them that just in case. Thank you!!

    Fowl pox and permanent reduction in egg production??

    I'm pretty sure it was wet...they had stuff oozing out of their eyes and mouth. What do you do about worms? Will sprinkling DE on their food help?

    Fowl pox and permanent reduction in egg production??

    Will fowl pox permanently affect their egg production? My chickens all got fowl pox a month ago and more then half the flock was 5 months and hadn't started laying? I haven't had an egg since the time they got sick which seems realistic since I read they usually don't recover for 3-5 weeks. I'm...
