    Muscovy questions :)

    That’s what we thought too! Male so we can call him Dexter and not Dexi. Lol He is still a lone duck. We are integrating him with the chickens. Doing well but he wears a diaper and hangs inside a lot. Every night he lays next to my handicapped daughter and at 10 pm he wonders to me to cuddle...

    Muscovy questions :)

    Here is an update. My father has had heart issues and open heart surgery so Dex our Muscovy continues to grow as a loner duck pet in the house and chicken yard. Is there anyone that may be able to determine if we have a male or female? Here are pics of 10 week old Dexter or Dexy. LOL. So...

    Muscovy questions :)

    Thanks so much. Disregard my request to take a look at the pictures. Thanks so much. No I will go on and look soon for another duck. Mainly I thought I would wait as having two inside through the cold winter is going to be harder but if you think I should get another real soon I will. P.S...

    Muscovy questions :)

    I am trying to find friends for it. I love the device to get water. She has constant access to water. But very messy. I am going to post a picture of it below. Our duck is five weeks now and i worry that her wings have lost hair in the top. Is this a part of the feathering process ? Also...

    Muscovy questions :)

    I received a phone call while I was sick with pneumonia. A friend found a Muscovy newborn in the grass in front of her apartment. It was tiny and still had the egg tooth so it was just hatched. She spent the day, in between keeping it warm, searching for a mother. Allowing it to peep and...

    Baby Serama question, I am in a real pickle.

    You have a good idea there. I was going to offer to get them more serama eggs and use of my incubator and they can do a group of them. I will make sure they are not going out of town. hahaha This baby is mine. if feather sexing applies to Seramas,I am fairly sure I have a little cockerel...

    Baby Serama question, I am in a real pickle.

    Well that is good to know, thanks. The poor thing is so lonelyI will try both a mirror (which I have used for hatches before) and a stuffed animal. I laid a real unused feather duster under the brinsea heated brooder last night thinking it would help her feel like her Momma was next to her...

    Baby Serama question, I am in a real pickle.

    They are actually not ok with it. They are still away and won't be back until next Sunday but sent me a text that they are sure the bird will be fine with them and I really wish it would be but I am too invested in it (and in love) to let anything happen to it. I am happy to enter the world of...

    Baby Serama question, I am in a real pickle.

    I let a friend borrow my incubator so that he and his family could hatch 7 Serama eggs with his family that they ordered from My Pet Chicken. At a ten day candling only one was viable. My pet chicken is sending them 7 of the fun and funky assortment soon. I told them hatching this loaner would...

    My Polish is sick, please help

    Thank you so much for your input. I had to take her to the vet. She has been going through a molt which has probably taken a toll on her food intake, but I was so worried about her. The vet felt quite a bit of fluid in her abdomen so she said it could be a broken egg causing infection. She...

    My Polish is sick, please help

    Awesome questions thanks. Lets see, she doesn't have anything in the crop this morning. I observe them quite well and she pushes right in to the food in the mornings. She tried to eat with the others this morning but she could not stand up for long so the crop was empty. and she has no lumps...

    My Polish is sick, please help

    I have a one year old WCB Polish hen. I have five chickens total in my city back yard. All of my chickens rode out Hurricane Irma here in Florida in my house and garage. They were all safe but their beautiful run was really demolished. So safe to say they have had stress. My black polish girl...

    What to do....

    I am feeding grower only to all five due to my 14 week olds being out in the group. I also am offering Oyster shell to the two hens in a separate container. That is exactly what I was afraid of. I have talked to people that throw scraps out everyday so I just recently got in the habit of...
