    Hello everyone I have a question regarding winter weather. I have a female pekin, her coop is built with insulation but I would feel more comfortable with a heating source now that the weather is changing. What would anyone recommend that is safe and efficient. Brand specific if possible. Would...

    Duck coop

    I can check on returning it, I had to pay to have it assembled and not sure if I have the receipt for it. I was suckered in by how cute it was too :( I have a fair amount of space but not too good with tools

    Duck coop

    That’s awful. She is handled frequently and very socialized with humans. I never considered getting 2 before.

    Duck coop

    I do let her free range while I am home and supervising, but she will be in there often. I was told one duck would be fine

    Pekin duckling

    Help! I noticed when I checked on my duckling she had a reddish color on her chest. I thought she may have just been dirty but I think she may have a sore. She was excessively “ biting” it but after I cleaned her I didn’t see anything. What should I do?

    Pekin duckling

    Hi! I have a 2 1/2 week old female. I live in Albuquerque, NM where temps have been in the low 100’s. I was wondering if my duckling can be kept outside during the day ( I have a Cape Cod coop) rather than the plastic bin I have her in. She’s outgrowing the bin really quickly.
