    Rescuing a Duck today....Found a good home for her!

    Well, if Attack Chicken can't take her, I possibly can. Could she hang out with two muscovey's? Anyone know?

    Duck with injured wing

    I have a young muscovey with an injured wing. The end of it sticks out at an odd angle and the quills look pink and inflamed. No blood or obvious broken bones. It just looks infected. Does anyone have any advice for treatment, or suggestions for what might be wrong?

    Quote: I haven't been back here for a while so just saw this! Kathleen, my hubby and I built our greenhouse. It's about 16x8 and we did it for about $500. It's nothing fancy, but it kept us in green veggies all through the winter last year. Do you have any pics? What do you do to keep...

    Quote: Ahh, I see. I've been wanting to put up a greenhouse forever now. I was just looking at greenhouse kits online and it seems that when money starts growing on trees I should be able to afford one! At least 5k for a small one! I haven't been back here for a while so just saw this...

    We had a great time, too, Shultz duo. Thanks so much for another great party!

    Quote: Interesting plants! Is that what you like to grow, mostly? Exotics? Very cool. I'd like a lemon bottlebrush, please. I'd love a few more plants, but nothing looks cold-hardy for me in my zone and I can't bring them all inside! If there are any that you think are hardy to zone 5...

    Quote: How big is your chicken house, Chseeads? How many birds per square foot? I still haven't figured out what the proper density ratio might be, especially when combining different birds. Please save me the three heftiest turkeys you have available! And I'd take one each of every...

    Sorry for all of the messages in a row! Just looking at available birds and making a possible shopping-list. Phoenixfeatherfarms, are the Ameraucauna pullets you have laying already? What color are their eggs so far? I know they can really vary and as I only have limited space I want to...

    Quote: Do you have pics of your guinea babies, too? I'd love a sky blue and a lavender and maybe a whitish one--the younger the better. And any suggestions for muscovy housing? How much room do they need? I'm so tempted...

    Quote: Chseeads, you have all sorts of things I want! Definitely put me down for 3 turkeys. One of them will be Thanksgiving dinner and the other two will be insurance. What age do you recommend getting to grow a good-sized but not astronomically huge bird by November? They will be free...

    Lame cockerel, no swelling

    Hi, I have a leghorn cockerel that is suddenly lame. Yesterday I noticed him limping, but couldn't catch him. Today he practically fell out the coop door and I picked him right up. His right foot seems pretty nerveless and won't lie flat on the ground when he tries to walk. It won't support...

    Thanks so much, Kathleen and Rob! I'm really excited. I may be bringing a third person. My brother may be visiting from out of state that weekend. If so, he'll be tagging along. Hope that's okay! Also, I doubt anyone needs one, but if anyone wants a RIR rooster, or even a Leghorn roo I...
