hi, I am preparing to tube feed Rooster Booster brand Poultry Cell and their liquid B-12. Do I mix them with water in the syringe? (or juice or something else), or do I give it pure? Also, can I give them at the same time or should I stagger this? much thanks from me and from Charlotte :)

Hi, is this a parasite symptom? Or intestinal shedding

Say it isn't so! They were born March 3, it is April 12 and I think I already have a drake feather! I thought it was a broken feather but tonight it looks curly. My baby is too young for this! (Both parents are Khaki Campbell)

Thank you for checking my post, I have a hen who started watery poops after a drainage for ascitite. I don't know if they are related, but it has been more than 10 days and she shoots water from her bum like an explosive diarrhea. Looking around for more info :( If you have any ideas, please...

Hi, I picked up Charlotte and brought her in for a bath this morning. Yesterday I noticed Charlotte had a piece of a broken egg in her vent (she is 3++ yrs now, and the only one of her cohort still laying in the winter ) When I got her bum feathers wet I saw something I had not seen before...

Hello! My girl hatched three beautiful babies. The father is in a space next to the little family, separated by an old window but no touching. She is a first time momma and this is my first time raising with a broody. Is there anything I need to worry about?

Hello, I have babies on the way. Will arrive late Feb, early March. They will need vaccination, and cannot be sexed. (Straight run) The image is Mom & Dad, as the eggs are not yet hatched.

hi, I have been searching for the recipes that will make duck food float for years now... please... if you know... share this knowledge (and hopefully spare some part of my sanity). MUCH thanks!

Hello, I have a beautiful young duck and her drake currently sitting on 7 perfect eggs. They should hatch (?) end February. If you are able to accommodate them, please message me. If you have never had ducks before, please hesitate and consider their special needs. I can help you understand...

Hi, I had a horrible cold snap here so I had to keep everyone inside while the weather calmed down. My drake got too 'eager' being locked up all day and plucked his hen's neck much too aggressively. I separated them (window between) but they had to stay indoors. I worried about many things...

I had Muscovy in the past and they came back to the coop even earlier than the chickens but now I have Khaki Campbells and it is a fight every night. They WANT to stay in the pond. I have to go to the pond with a long pole and force them out, it is not fun and now that it is cold I want them to...

Hi, can you share with me where you go to figure out what is contained in the components of feed? Things like: how much protein is in corn, barley, wheat, or others. How much of the other micronutrients (if any) are in sunflower seeds? Are the shells good too? That kind of info, I want a site...

Hello, I found my girl's first egg this morning (I hugged her and told her she is a woman now :) ) Her first egg is, of course tiny. She has a boyfriend (my first male, as I am not allowed roosters in my area). I know they "play" in the water and I assume they are mating when they do. Out of...

I was feeling brave the other day when I was at the feed store and I bought a bag of rolled oats. Turns out it isn't anything like oatmeal (which they love) it is just crushed regular oats and they won't eat them. Anyone found a way to make them delicious? Wondering if cooking, steaming...

Hi, I have 1 female and 1 drake, so I am hoping to find more females to lessen the burden when they become mature. My ducks were born first week in June of this year. I am north of Montreal in the Laurentian area. (Ste Adele sector) Thank you!

I've been waiting for more than a week for Amazon to deliver the safeguard, it arrives late yesterday. I was so happy when I gathered my little hen today to give her the first dose. I ASSUMED the plunger it comes in would have graduations on it to tell me how much is 0.25ml so I could dose her...

...with diatomatious earth in case there is a bite that has not exploded yet (and to show any curious flies this is not a good place to raise babies. *Growling sound meant to scare off any opportunistic bugs) I washed her legs and applied Vaseline as she doesn't normally let me handle her and...

they are now 5 weeks old (one seems a few days older)... When they were newborn someone said Kaki Campbell (I believe that was a correct) can we say boy/girl now (and safely name them ;) )

Niacin dose for 2yr old duck (Muscovy female, no longer laying) Hi, I have eliminated (I believe) everything else, she started with a sore leg we thought might be sprained, but now she is no longer standing on her legs. I have this bag that contains a lot of vitamins, I would like to try to get...

Oh my.... Need something more to worry about? I have this on the poo board from last night in the coop. They switch sleeping places so I don't know which girl yet... What am I going to find ? Bloody butt from a cut? Internal egg ? Worms ?
