Today my babies that aren't babies tried to fly over their fence to get to me and face planted in it... I then went in and instantly they jumped on my lap and started quacking for a pat. Gotta love 'em.
Thank you both she was my favourite but her feet are swollen and red, she's not preen so my dad is going to put her out of her misery while I'm at school.
I'm very worried, I have 4 RIR 3 Bater browns and 2 Austrolorps. The RIR are 4 years old and not laying and one of them is sick. She is not eating or drinking and moves away from the group so they don't attack her for being weak and sick. She had a slimy mouth and has trouble breathing, doesn't...
I let my babies go swim in a pasta dish or dog bowl when they were about a week old so I guess it is up to you but I'm not letting mine go in the **** until I know that when I call they will come back and not try to make a home there like my last ones did. They swim in kids shell sand pit thing...
thanks and today my ducks were arguing over who sits on my lap so I left to hang with the chooks and they both started quacking as loud as they can. Its a love hate relationship
I have recently gotten 3 Barter brown and 2 Australorp 1 quarter Rhode Island Red 20 week old hens and was wondering when they will start laying, health problems, if they get along with other animals (I have 2 pekin girls, 2 sheep, 1 dog and 4 4 yr old RIR) etc. Thanks
I have a question. Will my ducks get along with my 20 week old Barter brown and Australorp hens and my 4 year old Rhode Island Reds they are all girls but I am yet to let the ducks into the acreage and wanted to know if they would fight. Please help I don't need conflict with birds.
They may be ill so I suggest getting them checked by a vet but it may also be because they are so heavy. My 2 girls aren't as heavy but they don't do that but when they walk they do wobble from side to side :P so cute!
Thank you so much! Sorry I couldn't reply straight I've been having some family issues... but that doesn't matter because my ducks are getting prettier every second. :)
