    Coughing Rooster, Here is what I did to help until I can get the Vet

    So, I have a Rooster named Fraulein, yes Fraulein because when we got her, ah Him, we thought he was a hen.

    feeling a little blue

    I culled one of our roosters this evening and I feel rather bad about it (moral issues). It was not a very nice rooster and it was somewhat of an agressive rooster too. I hope I did the right thing, I couldn't give it to anyone because of its behavior. I just don't feel good about it.

    Do I need to build a pond if I get ducks?

    Hi all! I've been wanting a couple ducks for a while now, but I've never had any before. Would I need to build a pond for them in the yard since there is no natural water in my area? What about duck housing and feed, I guess the whole nine yards. Do they get along with chickens too?
