    Thoughts on temporarily housing goldens with ducks?

    Thanks! My husband built it for me. The pond has a 2" (maybe 3"?) drain -the PVC comes out down the hill a bit - I just open a valve and it dumps out. I then hose it out and refill - the big rock in the middle there acts as a waterfall - it has fresh water hooked to it and also has a...

    Thoughts on temporarily housing goldens with ducks?

    Thoughts on temporarily housing goldens with ducks?

    My Hens Sleeping in the Run - Not the Coop - HELP??!!

    The Middle Tennessee Thread

    Good morning. Greetings from Clarksville. I've seen a few mentions about a saturday auction in Elkton but can't find much info on the web. I gather it's at the Bluegrass Stables? Can anyone point me in the right direction? What time does it start? What do the generally have? I'm not really...

    Silkie thread!

    Quote: They appear to be the same spots my boys get from time to time. Nothing to worry about. There is a fungus known as favus but those would be powdery. If they don't wipe off then its is not the fungus. There is one I just had a friend go through, Sonoran is the one who figured it out, a...

    Anyone know what this is? Silkie Roo with White Spots on Comb

    Have noticed this over the last month or so on this Roo only. I've never seen any mites/bugs and use DE regularly in Sand Floor Run/ Wood chip coop. Does not come off with water. Think it's something I should be concerned about? Thanks!

    2 Month Silkie w/ Unusual "Drunk" Behavior

    I followed the protocol found at: http://www.browneggblueegg.com/Article.html symptoms are the same as described there so I can only assume I'm on the right track. Is it something you see a lot of Bat Cave Silkies? These are my first 4 Silkies (I've got another batch in the incubator...eta...
