    3 out of 4 ducks died suddenly

    Yea it’s very frustrating! And sad. Our neighbors don’t spray anything that I know of and our ducks have been out and about in the yard off and on for over 6 months and never had any issues:/ and they don’t wander beyond our yard so not sure what it could be but it was 3 out of the 4 every...

    3 out of 4 ducks died suddenly

    No:/ my thought was possibly botulism from getting into the compost? But they’ve done that before and have been fine

    3 out of 4 ducks died suddenly

    3 out of 4 ducks died suddenly

    Snapped neck

    It’s an Americana and Easter egger mix. But no wounds or missing feathers, chick was dead. Found in the middle of the coop at 10pm after we had been out there around 8pm and they were all fine.

    Snapped neck

    Has anyone ever had a chicken snap their neck trying to fly in their coop? We found one of our 8 week old chickens in the middle of the coop with straight legs and head bent sideways. Thinking maybe it tried to fly up and hit a beam or walk and snapped it’s neck 😢

    Chickens and ducks

    Hey everyone! We recently just got a few varieties of chickens (10 total) and have a coop with a fairly large run. I also got 4 baby ducklings that I’ve been raising in our enclosed patio until they’re old enough to not have heat. Now that they’re getting bigger we’re slowly introducing them to...
