    Lost one of my Pekin ducks last night

    May my beautiful babies find eternal rest and peace with God. He can protect you now. I am so sorry, my babies, that I could not protect you like you deserved to be protected. Forgive me and be at peace now. I love you

    Lost one of my Pekin ducks last night

    As I surveyed out this morning, I saw no activity at all. I believe it is a waste land of death. The massacre that occurred last night must have been unthinkable. But at least I hope they are in a better place now. I hope my babies are now free of the miserable cycle of death and destruction...

    Lost one of my Pekin ducks last night

    Donkeydew. God bless you and your animals and try to keep safe out there. I just moved to NC and I've heard we have coyotes here too. I saw the eyes of the racoon inside the duck house tonight when I pointed my flashlight outside of the window. It is really horrifying to go through these things...

    Lost one of my Pekin ducks last night

    The remaining three were just attacked tonight. I went out in time and sat in the truck and turned on the lights aimed at their house. But I eventually had to come back in. All 3 are bloody now. I think it would be best if they just finished them off now because I am sure they are suffering...

    Lost one of my Pekin ducks last night

    I have been away for quite a while but I've continued raising ducks. I had 4 pekin ducks but last night something got into the duck cage and ate one of my babies. I was so sad this morning to go out and count 3 heads instead of 4. Then I saw the one with its feet up in the air and eaten I was...

    Help me talk a friend out of a goat

    Quote: If he is ALWAYS ON THE GO and only wants ONE GOAT.... IMO it is a bad thing. Animals need someone who can spend time with them. And goats should never be alone with no other goats. But if he can get a couple it would be great for his family IF they like animals.

    Raw diet for dogs?

    It is most certainly true! I am a licensed food handler. And I am required by the government to take recertification courses approved by the US government every few years with the latest info and studies in food safety.

    Raw diet for dogs?

    Humans and animals alike with compromised immune systems can become VERY ILL by eating raw meat. The bacteria and parasites in uncooked meat can in fact claim the life of sick animals and humans. So do this at your own risk and with full knowledge that it can be quite dangerous. Many humans are...

    Raw diet for dogs?

    I think people can eat whatever they want and feed their animals whatever they want. But there is no need to try to recruit others. Afterall, dogs will eat their own excrement and any other animal's excrement too, so raw meat is nothing for them. They will eat raw horse meat and road kill alike...

    my new bunny hutch

    That is so sweet. There are a couple wild bunnies that stay in my yard. I hope they have some babies. I wonder how they escape the predators and the free range chickens always get caught if I don't watch them?

    My dog attacked my ducks

    My ducks get the backyard and the dog ONLY goes out in the front yard and other prescibed areas where the ducks are not. There is a fence dividing the 2 areas. Good luck getting your ducks back and learning to run a tighter ship this time. I really feel so sorry for your ducks. I hope you can...

    Getting a horse on a trailer?

    you could blindfold them to lead them in and then give them a bucket of feed immediately to eat inside. Then take them out. Repeat daily as necessary.

    Something got my roo! I am just amazed. UPDATE-I GOT IT!! PG 9-GRAPHIC

    No offense but I see how scared my rooster still is now from last night. Even if the raccoons can't reach their hands through the hardware cloth now they can still surround the little cage and terrorize the chickens all night long. I would personally feel better with them inside an enclosure...

    Something got my roo! I am just amazed. UPDATE-I GOT IT!! PG 9-GRAPHIC

    To make someone think they can kill all the raccoons in the forest is not supporting them. It is telling them lies that will not help the problem. A coop is the simple solution that will solve the problem and is the best support anyone can offer. All animals should have proper housing and...

    I have a hawk that wont stay away

    You can find a bird net on eBay to put over top of your run. They have even up to 150x150 for as little as $29.00 Sink a 4x4 post or 2 tall in the middle to serve as a central post for some height in there. The shiny things will be nice too

    Something got my roo! I am just amazed. UPDATE-I GOT IT!! PG 9-GRAPHIC

    You cant kill all the raccoons More will wander around the next night because the woods are all connected. I have proof that they need to be kept inside a coop at night now. Last night I left my white rooster loose in his cage but not in his doghouse because it was so hot and he was on t he...

    Something got my roo! I am just amazed. UPDATE-I GOT IT!! PG 9-GRAPHIC

    ooh that is scary! I heard some nasty racoons growling in the woods last night when I went out to put everyone inside their wooden coops for the night. A new chick was missing. Fortunately when I went out this morning she was in the pen sitting on top of her dog house coop. I don't leave them...

    Something got my roo! I am just amazed. UPDATE-I GOT IT!! PG 9-GRAPHIC

    I am so sorry. Is the pen such that it is just tipped over or lifted to get in? Does it have a bottom or posts anchoring it in the ground ? Maybe you can beef it up some before putting anything else in it. Looks sort of like the live traps that predators can just flip right over. I would...
