    Ideal ducks?

    So chicken math finally got the better of me and at the beginning of May I bought 6 Khaki Campbell ducks. Well its starting to look like I have 1 duck and 5 drakes. Of course I cant keep them like that. I am giving them until I come back from vacation this month on the 24th before I go...

    I want to know the pros and cons to your ducks

    I am thinking about getting a couple ducks next year when I build a bigger coop for my chickens. I have heard a lot about different breeds and no matter what I read I still can't decide which ones to go with if I do decide to get them. So pretty much what I am hoping for is for all you duck...

    A rambling about Facebook and people's stupidity.

    So I am part of this group on facebook that has to do with finding animals homes in the state I live in. This poor woman is being attacked in this group for posting pictures of a calf that was born today that she is trying to sell. People are giving her crap just because it is already taken...

    Jersey Giant

    I recently got a Jersey Giant chick with my chick order that came in on Tuesday of last week. I have seen pictures on google of approximate size, but I don't know if all these pictures are real.

    Adding to existing flock

    This may not be the right place to post this, but I want a little bit of advice before I do anything. I am thinking about ordering five more chicks to add to my five Easter Eggers. Would I be better off ordering five of the same breed? How well do Easter Eggers do when it comes to adding new...

    Should I insulate or not?

    I am having a really hard time with this. I've read where people do insulate, then people don't. I am in upstate New York and some of our winters get really harsh, talking negative 40 degrees at the least. I don't really have a way of running a heat source up to where my coop is located. The...

    Cross Beak Baby

    I have a cross beak baby who is about three weeks old. I have tried syringe feeding her and giving her a mash. She does not seem to do well with either. There are never two people home at the same time in my house for me to tube feed her. I was hoping someone would have another suggestion...

    Hi!

    I thought I would swing by and tell everyone a little bit about myself. My name is Sam. I just got into chickens this year, took a while to convince my other half to let me have them. Decided to start my flock with 6 Easter Eggers. I absolutely love them. I have one who has scissor beak and...
