    Just want to double check

    Different parents - the other one was a “sexed pullet” from a hatchery. This one was my own game of hatch roulette.

    Just want to double check

    I’m 95% certain this is a roo. His comb came up early but hasn’t gotten any bigger, and no attempt at crowing. Then the color on his wings started. But, the other roo started crowing a good month ago so maybe I still have hope. What % cockerel do you give him? He’s a mutt. Dad was an OE and mom...

    These ducks…

    I raised these two buttheads from their first second of life. Hatched them. Tended to their every want and need. Cleaned their brooder out multiple times a day, fed them, held them, gave them treats, took them to the sink to swim, etc etc. Was never rough, loud, or mean to them. And yet a few...

    Separating Chickens and Ducks

    I had two chicks with two ducklings for 2 1/2 months. It wasn’t ideal to have them together in the first place but here we are. I finally separated them today and the ducks - especially the female - is beside herself. Quacking all day, just staring at the chicken run. The male is also upset...

    Duck Losing Breast Feathers

    New to ducks with two that are about two months old. The female is losing a bunch of breast feathers. The male isn’t, and she isn’t losing them anywhere but her breast - they’re all the same small fluffy feathers. Is this normal or should I be looking for parasites? Don’t see anything obvious.

    Drake and Hen

    I’m going to separate the ducks and chickens, but do Roos and Drakes compete if nearby? There is probably ten feet between the chicken run and duck run. I really don’t want more ducks so I'm tempted to try the 1:1 and if there are issues, I can remedy with more hen ducks.

    Avian Flu Near Me

    LPAI isn’t a death sentence…still avian influenza but not everyone knows there are different strains.

    Drake and Hen

    On a whim, I hatched two duck eggs from the local farm that we bought for baking. They came refrigerated - I didn’t think they’d do anything, but I had a broody hen and the rest is history. Once the eggs started developing and I got to “what am I going to do with ducks?” I figured I’d get two...

    Egg Withdraw

    I’m treating my flock with Equimax for tapeworms. Normally I dry their shells and feed back to them - I know there’s an egg w/d after treatment but does it also apply to the shell?

    Pullet or cockerel - Hmong chick!

    I hatched a few from sugar feather too - my one guy (I think it’s a boy) looks a lot like the chick in your original post! It is so active that I have to video and then screen shot - can’t get a still shot. When they hatched, it was tearing around the incubator like a quail - it’s a crazy chick...

    Tapeworm

    I have some! Thank you!

    Pullets or Cockerels

    Hmong chicks, four weeks old. Too early or is the comb on #1 suspicious already? First three are 1, next three are 2, final three are 3. They won’t hold still for more than half a second so I video and screen capture - sorry if any are a little blurry.

    Tapeworm

    I have a wheezy chicken who was pretty bad at one point but after a lot of nebulizing and some Tylan (mostly orally) she is a mild wheezer. Took her to the vet and they said she was on the thin side / got her some antibiotics for the wheeze - my girls have free choice layer feed at all times so...

    Jaw Abscess on Rabbit

    I noticed a small gumball sized bump on my bunny’s lower jaw in May. Took him to the vet, they said it was an abscess. Scheduled surgery - about a month and a half between noticing it and getting him into surgery (only exotic vet nearby and that first appt was a good month wait). They did a CT...

    Angel Wing?

    Here’s a few from today.

    Angel Wing?

    This is the other one - a girl - she’s started to quack. Still not sure what he is but I’m going with a boy for now. I’ll get a pick of them together today - they never hold still so it’s always a fun time. 😬

    Angel Wing?

    This is my one month old Duck, Cheese. Not sure what breed - I hatched him (not confirmed yet) from a farm egg on a whim so I don’t know what breed. I have chickens so why not some ducks? 🤪 He’s about 3.6 lbs - grew really fast. The other duck I hatched is a different breed but her pin feathers...

    EE - Pullet?

    I got her/him as a pullet from Meyer but they got one of my OEs wrong and im suspicious about this one. The comb is still not red or big like the OE but maybe it’s just slower to develop…
