    The Rooster Thread!

    This is Punk Rock. He is my silkie rooster. He is a little over a year old. He is worthless as a guardian, but I love him. He will sound the alarm, from behind a tree or the coop. He was named by my favorite nephew who has Autism/Aspergers and was absolutely terrified of chickens until he met...

    Deceased-10 wk old duck acting disoriented and too wobbly to stand

    My first thought was an injury. There wasn't anything dislodged or fallen in the coop. I looked again for large limbs or anything in the yard. I couldn't find a lump or bump on him. After he passed I went hunting a snake bite or something, anything to explain his death. Yes, I am weird but I...

    I don't think so. I know his little feathers were blowing all around because it was windy. I assume you mean crest as in like a dog raising its scruff/ruff.

    This one is still blowing some feathers. Unless they are totally different I don't think it is quite as old as they claimed. But I'm new at this. I can guess pretty accurately the age of a horse or a dog LOL but ducks are a new thing

    If the information I have is correct this duck is the same age as my Pekins, about 4 months.

    My big girls are all pretty vocal. The Mallard and this one just kind of blend in to the woodwork

    Yes, sorta. But it's very shy and just follows the flow. So I have only heard it the one time. And it isn't a Pekin kind of quack. Does that make sense?

    Any guesses on the sex of the Indian Runner? Everything else appears to be female.... I am hoping this one is also.

    I have 6 ducks. I know 2 are American Pekin (or were bought as such.) 2 are supposedly Buff Orpington ( Isn't that a chicken??) 1 is supposedly a female Mallard. And the other we have no earthly idea. Any help verifying identification would be appreciated. The first couple show the mystery...

    This was the duckling. It was taken day before yesterday. This was the closest he came to being still for pictures. Everything else is blurred because he was very active. Has been since we brought him home and he did his quarantine time.

    @Pyxis What do you mean by a crest? He was on the same feed and scratch, with the run of the coop and back yard where he has been for 2 months. He could move his legs, he just couldn't stand at all. His neck seemed ok when you help him upright, he'd look around and got po'ed at being...

    Ricky Bobby was fine this morning at feeding time. When we went this evening to try for good pictures, we don't know breed or sex, RB was in the coop sitting all alone and on his side. When Dear Hunny picked him up and placed him back down he fell over and was struggling to right himself. He...
