    My ducks want to sleep in the freezing cold - any suggestions?

    Hi guys. I’ve got 2 drakes. They have an outdoor coop with a 2 meter run. In the mornings I let them out and they meander around my large enclosed garden during the day, then they return to the run in the evenings to sleep. They’ve never used the coop, except once when we had a thunder storm...

    Treating wry neck in newly hatched duckling

    He’s all better now! 3 days in the sock and he was completely normal. I also fed him scrambled eggs with vitamin e and niacin added in. Keeping him warm and comfortable is what helped the most I think. I literally carried him with me everywhere and by day 4 he was wobbly but almost completely...

    Treating wry neck in newly hatched duckling

    He’s doing so good now! He was better after 3 days in the sock and he’s now completely healthy and happy. A little smaller than his siblings but otherwise fine. I made a TikTok about it, and some updates and it ended up going viral with over 4m views haha. You can see it here if you want x

    Can I plant my basket plants in the garden?

    I have a couple of baskets filled with primroses, I thought they were annuals but I’ve just read that they’re perennials. I want to put some petunia and fuscia into these baskets, can I take the primroses out of the baskets and plant them straight into the garden? Sorry if this is a stupid...

    Treating wry neck in newly hatched duckling

    My 6th and final egg hatched last night (yeyyy) but I had to assist a little as it was shrinkwrapped and clearly struggling. He had a swollen, leaky abdomen/belly button. It was about grape sized and has since (as far as I can tell) sorted itself out nicely. The duckling has wryneck and can...

    5 hatched. 1 to go (fingers crossed for 100% hatch rate)

    I’ve had the happiest 12 hours of my life. The 6th and final egg is externally pipped and I hope he’ll be joining us shortly!! Not bad for farm shop eggs and a faulty incubator! Can anyone recognise which breed?

    Quick question about hatching

    They’re very inconsiderate of our anxieties aren’t they? 😂 He’s definitely making a racket in there! It’s bedtime here I’m gonna try to sleep and leave them til the morning. Fingers crossed I wake up to a duck family x

    Quick question about hatching

    Oh thanks so much! I don’t mind waiting if I know they’re okay, it’s the fear of not knowing isn’t it! One of them is making a lot of progress now he’s almost out! So exciting. Want to leave them alone but also don’t want to miss anything 😂

    Quick question about hatching

    No because I probably won’t assist tbh (but I have read it a couple times). Of course the moment I post this they start pecking again 🥴
