    Where to keep a duck

    I have 2 ducks. They have no problem climbing the ramp to go in at night and yes they put themselves in. Ducks themselves are not messy that I found. It’s all that water. Gets everywhere

    They sure r cute. I’m glad you didn’t lose any when they escaped. My cats don’t go after the hens but they may go after the chicks. Unless their with a momma hen then the cats don’t touch them. So glad u wrapped the bottom.

    Hurtful words

    All my chickens r my pets. I come from a large family and I have 4 sons all of them know how much I love my chickens and they are very sympathetic when I lose one. When I cry because I lost one my husband is right there consoling me. They call me the crazy chicken lady but it’s all in fun. Love...

    I also put probiotics and electrolytes in their water for the first few days. Please make sure you check their butts for pasty butt every day.

    If u can try to wrap the bottom of your cage with hardware cloth or even cardboard. Chicks can fit thru an opening that wide. I learned my lesson the hard way lol.

    Dirty duck eggs

    Hi all I have decided to try my hands at ducks. My question is this. I got 6 duck eggs from my neighbor to put under my hen. The eggs are dirty. Do I keep them like that or do I clean them somehow.

    Will I get eggs this year?

    my Mother in law just aske me this same question. I told her the same thing as Alexa009. I got mine in April and I live in NH. So I don’t expect to get any from my new chicks until next year. You may get one here and there before that but don’t expect it. It’s just a bonus if u do.
