I was out feeding my flock the other evening and heard a squealing racket. Looked over and one of my Welsummer hens was running around with a mouse in it's mouth. It frailed it around for a while then swallowed it whole! Never seen that before, don't know how it kept from choking.
Hello folks, I've got a seven week old Cayuga that can't stand up. It's just happened suddenly, I let my ducks out of their coop on Sunday afternoon and they all filed out like normal. They played around in their pool while I cleaned out the coop and I noticed one was laying down and just wasn't...
I have 3 African geese that are 2 weeks old. I've been letting them have some grass every couple days and my question is about grit. I can get sand where I work, coarse and fine. I'm thinking coarse is better. Do you just put it separate in a pan off to the side?I'm worried they'll lay into it...
Is this a Narragansett or a Royal Palm? I got it from a friend who had several of his flock killed by dogs the other day. He's lost heart in keeping his birds and was giving a lot of them away.
Had a little shipping delay but finally got my African geese trio, and six Black Swedish ducks Friday morning from Cackle Hatchery. They all seem to be very healthy, it's nice and hot down here so I brought them out for some fresh air today.
