    duck with possible dislocated hip

    If anyone could give me advice I would really appreciate it. I can't find a vet willing to see a duck and fix a dislocation. The vet I worked for has even called several of his contacts and we haven't had any luck.

    Adding smaller chicks to flock

    Thanks! I knew there would be some pecking and fighting but they were relentless yesterday. I will put some more hiding spots and try one at a time. It scares me because the bantams are so much smaller than my big girls.

    Adding smaller chicks to flock

    Hi I have 5 Bantam chicks (7 weeks) that I would like to introduce to my older (11-12 weeks) barred rocks and 3 ducks about the same age. I have done "see but don't touch" since we got the bantams when they were days old, and yesterday I tried to open the cage wide enough that the bantams could...

    7 week old bantams Hen or Roo?

    Thanks, that is what I figured I guess I just needed someone else to say for sure LOL I am so happy the Cochin is a hen, I was really bummed a few weeks ago when she looked to be growing a large comb and waddles.. I would love to hatch some eggs from her and the frizzle.

    Feeding Bantam chicks??

    Thanks, I have been changing the feed and washing the feeder 2X a day. They are still inside most of the day so its a little easier to make sure they always have clean/ fresh food

    Feeding Bantam chicks??

    Thanks everyone, the chicks seem to be eating it without a problem. I had heard mixed things on weather it was OK to feed wetted feeds to chicks but so far no problems!

    Feeding Bantam chicks??

    I have 5 bantam chicks. They are still tiny, only about 5-6 weeks old. I bought a 50 pound bag of feed because I also have 4 Barred Rock chickens, and 3 ducks that are older. My problem is that when I bought the bag I did not realize that it was pellets not crumbles. My bantams seem to be having...
