    chick with one saggy eyelid

    The other day I noticed that one of my silkie chicks eyelids were kinda pulling away from her eye on her left side, the right side is a little droopy but not as much. I became more concerned when it got a little watery and she began to close it more often, other than that she is acting normal...

    HELP !! Found a featherless baby parrot

    This is a parakeet with some sort of feather condition, he is not a baby but you should keep him warm. Please be careful if you are feeding him with a syringe and don't stick far into his mouth or you could damage his crop. He could be hiding because he is overly stressed or just not hungry at...

    Are These Eggs Fertile And Good To Hatch Without A Shell?

    WARNING PICS.. Nasty butt we need a clue and a cure

    I know when my chicks get pasty butt the first thing I do is scramble them an egg for extra protein and add a little apple cider vinegar to their water for probiotics. Along with cleaning them, this normally clears them.

    Eggs gone cold, are they okay???

    I think they will be fine. Once during a storm the power went out for 2 days. I got a 50% hatch rate but only 3 birds died in the egg prematurely, the rest of them were not even fertile to begin with. Defiantly keep incubating them.

    Pest

    I lock my birds up at night and I have never had anything get in, I think a door is a good idea.

    Indian Runners not laying

    She defiantly sounds broody to me. My ducks normally prefer sitting in some straw on the ground rather then a nest box, but you could try and see if your ducks like it more. Putting them in the garden sounds like a good idea. Hope they feel better soon

    Toys for Muscovy Ducks

    You could put them in a pool or the bathtub and cut up lettuce into it with some scissors. They just love swimming around and eating as they go, it reminds them of being in a pond and eating duckweed.

    Indian Runners not laying

    They sound stressed to me. I have lots of different types of birds and I know when there stressed they lay in more hidden places and sometimes don't lay at all. I think you should try to keep them away from the goats if possible and maybe give them some treats that they like. Do you think that...
