    Boring duck coop

    Hi there! My duck coop is boring, it’s dry dirt with little to no plants. I know ducks like to eat plants but I’m looking to add some kind of plants to their area to make it better for them. I read that already established plants are better because they aren’t as tender so I’m not against...

    2-3 wk old ducklings outside or inside?

    When can you let ducklings roam around on the ground in a contained area? Right now they are in a tub with bedding, inside my house and as you all know I’m sure, they stink :) wondering if I can make them their own coop inside my chicken coop, separated from the other chickens of course. or! I...

    What breed are these ducklings

    Can I ask how you got your broody hen to adopt your ducks? Or did it happen naturally? I’m always afraid the hens will go after anything smaller than they.

    4 wk old silkie wry neck coming back

    When it puts its head down, it gets the bedding dust all over it, could that be what’s causing the sneezing?

    4 wk old silkie wry neck coming back

    How many times do I give the B complex? Do I smash the 1/4 in water and give it to it in a syringe? It twitches its head and sneezes a lot so it makes me think it is neurological.

    Wry neck survivor with bulging eye

    Well I was doing the nutridrench for the wry neck, and I think it came back last time because I stopped giving the vitamin e too early? So I don’t wanna have that happen again. But I think maybe one of my other chicks might have been picking on it so I have them separated and so far it looks...

    Wry neck survivor with bulging eye

    Hi all. I have a silky that showed signs of wry neck at 2/3 days old. I immediately looked it up, found a lot of info from this site about vitamin e and selenium and began giving it both of these. It cured it but then a week or so later, so it was about 2 weeks old at this point maybe, it...
