lolololol. I prefer ducks! But I love my doggie too I got her before iIknew I could get ducks and if I had known, I probably wouldnt have gotten her. but now, i wouldnt trade her in for ANY duck.
if 2 ducks have a baby and they create a daughter. that daughter mates with its dad. their daughter would be the sister and daughter. mom would be mom and sister. it would only be half sister but it still counts
interbreeding (incest) is how most new breeds are made. It shouldnt make much of a difference at first but its once you keep breeding them over the babies to where the mom is the sister and grandma and great grandma and so on. Thats when problems start. its like that song "I am my own Grandpa"...
That's good though right? Since theres that new Muscovy ordanance thingy. I just want to make sure he can still be happy and "have fun" with the girls. And if the girls DO happen to "have babies" by him that they wont come out mutated or something.
So its just like a breeding a horse and a...
I dont know if it is typical, but im guessing from the markings that he is a he. I have been 100% successfull guessing the sex of ducks by features. I bought 2 week-old Rouen a month ago and i picked one that looked like it might be a girl and one that looked like it might be a boy. Well...
Thats the EXACT same camera i have been wanting. Im going to get it next month for my photography class at the college. Thanks for posting the pics. I love your ducks, they're BEAUTIFUL! Is the hurt one a boy and the other a girl?
IF ANYONE CAN HELP, PLEASE VIEW MY POST. MAYBE SOMEONE CAN HELP...
I have a Muscovy Drake (I think drake) named Freddy. I was just wondering if he could sucessfully fertilize an egg with a Magpie/Ancona, Rouen, Pekin, Runner, or Black Swedish hen? Also, "Freddy" (the Muscovy) is only half the size of our young Swedish which are only half his age. I know Swedish...
MotherJean,
Thank you for your response. It is comforting and reassuring to know that im not the only one who thinks the way I do. I felt that I'd rather give her medicine, which covers many ailments, and try to care for her the best I can than to do nothing at all. The way of life...
ok, she IS eating as I previousely stated. She IS drinking too. She was inside the house till I came home and she had pooped all over my leather couch and my wedding dress (which is in the livingroom because im getting married this month). I put her back outside but sepatated from everyone else...
sorry, i thought i mentioned it. Her Crop is empty! her eyes seemed normal. She is pinkish where she is supposed to be red; but i think that's cause she's still young. she has a yellow "nose". I gave her a shot of spectrum this morning; 1/2cc. and if she isnt completely better tomorrow, ill give...
Is there a disease which is described by a chicken that sleeps all day? I have a 6 week old hen who is sick. she just lays on her side and sleeps all day. today is day 2 of being sick. she doesnt eat or drink. she is VERY skinny. She doesnt have diahrea (that i have seen). she does NOT appear to...
ok, so this morning she looked worse than ever before. I moved her around to try and get her comfortable, but she was just getting worse. I took her outside by our burn pile and shot her. I am a VERY good shot so it was really quick and she didnt suffer at all. After she was dead, I burned the...
