    Do ducks sleep like chickens?

    Quote: She said she chases ALL ducks and geese and herons out of her pond. Whatever her reason for not wanting them on her property, it's my responsibility to keep them on mine. I'm so stressed, I don't know how to capture them. They used to practically eat out of my hand but since all of this...

    They woke and flew in the water as soon as my husband tried to get close to them last night.

    Quote: Don't get me wrong, I understand her frustration and I've been trying my best to contain them but I think she's been very rude about it.

    Do ducks sleep like chickens?

    Quote: Oh you have no idea! She came home from work today and caught the ducks in her pond. She laid on the horn all the way from the road to in front of my house. She continued to sit out in front of my house and honk the horn like a crazy person. I was ignoring her. This is the third time...

    Do ducks sleep like chickens?

    This is sounding promising! Their wings have grown out and need to be clipped again so I need to cage them.

    Do ducks sleep like chickens?

    When chickens go to sleep you can just pick them up and carry them off. Do Muscovy ducks sleep the same way? Can I just pick my scovies up while they're sleeping?

    Lame Guinea Keet

    My guinea hen hatched out 9 keets about a week ago. We found one dead but think it was the cat because the same day the cat came in with a big gash on his ear. Anyhow this morning there was one keet who was not staying with his momma. He didn't run when I reached down to pick him up. He pooped...

    How much should I expect to pay for Ruddy Ducks?

    Dr. Todd : You'll need to watch the shelducks during the breeding season, they can be cantankerous and dangerous to other waterfowl. Not all pairs are as bad but be prepared to put them in a separate enclosure for the safety of your other birds. DT Ok yes I am prepared for them to be...

    How much should I expect to pay for Ruddy Ducks?

    Dr. Todd : North American Ruddy Ducks or Ruddy Shelducks? Big difference in price and care. Ruddy Shelducks go for around $100pr, N.A. Ruddy Ducks are twice that. Ruddy Shelducks are very easy to keep and simple enough to raise, North American Ruddy Ducks should be left to advanced...

    How much should I expect to pay for Ruddy Ducks?

    I really want some Ruddy Ducks. A guy down the road has two pair he wants to sell. These are the only ones he has and he's asking $50 per pair. Is this the regular price for them? I would rather just buy the two ducks and one drake but don't want to leave the one drake alone. Whatcha think??

    Baby Muscovy

    Yup that's how they are. They don't tend to play in their water like the other ducks. And they are really mellow. I've heard of Scovies wanting to be petted and sitting in peoples laps. Mine won't do that but they do eat out of my hand. Good luck with your new little one! Post pics if you get a...

    It's time to play...."Guess That Duck"!!!

    Quote: It's just part of the code to be picked on, but being he's had such a rough start I would not put him with them all at once, do you have one thats calm and could maybe buddy him up with it? That way he's not alone and can give him time to let the others adjust. Can they all still see...

    It's time to play...."Guess That Duck"!!!

    I lock my 4 juvenile scovies and 7 adult Calls in a fenced, covered area at night. Then during the day I let them out to free-range. I kept the new guy in the fenced area all day yesterday to get stronger and familiar with his new surroundings. They all spent the night together and he did fine...
