    My Cayuga Pair

    Hi all! I live in Tempe Arizona and am looking for a new home for my Cayugas. I have 2 of them, one male, Molly and one laying female, Atreyu. They are about 8 1/2 months old.

    My Cayuga doesn't like water

    Miss Lydia, I do see her rubbing her head there. I am definately going to try the warm washcloth compress. She seems to groom just fine out of the water. It's strange. You have been a huge help!

    My Cayuga doesn't like water

    Hopefully, she will learn by watching Atreyu. I put them in the tub every morning after breakfast, and every night before bed. I noticed she seems more wet than he does, which I don't understand...she grooms the same as he does out of the water, but in the water she just sits there. Hopefully...

    My Cayuga doesn't like water

    My hen, Molly doesn't seem to like the water, she won't dip her head like. The male (Atreyu) does. I know they do this to prevent eye/sinus infections. What are her chances of getting an infection if she doesn't clean herself like she should? What should I do, if there is anything. Is it normal...

    Hi from AZ! New momma of two Cayuga ducks, need more info

    How old will the hen be before she begins laying eggs? How do you stop them from nibbling on everything, including people? What are warning signs of them becoming ill?

    Hello all. I am a new and proud owner of two 6-week old Cayuga ducks and am looking for more info on how to raise them. General info is fine, I just need more than they produced flavorful meat (that's all I can seem to find). Any help is useful! Thanks

    Duck Foot Problem!

    Hi! I am new here and just got two 6 week old Cayuga ducks. I am having trouble finding information on them other than they are good to eat. I am wondering if they'll ever fly, can they play with toys, and just general information on them. I know that they are docile critters and eat duck feed...
