    HELP ATE GOAT DEWORMER

    My chickens did...some spilled on the ground while I was dosing the goats. It’s the Manna Pro pellet kind in the yellow bag. What do I do? Did I inadvertently poison them?

    Toughest layer ducks

    What are some tough breeds of ducks that are relatively good layers? (Tough meaning good foragers, good candidates for free ranging, intelligent enough to evade aerial predators whenever possible, etc)

    Sav a chick

    Does it have to be used at the recommended concentration of one packet for one gallon of water? I have a bird who doesn't seem interested in drinking much and I was wondering about dissolving it in a smaller amount of water and giving it to her through a dropper

    Bird missing for 5 days-now being attacked

    One of my hens who was already low in the pecking order went missing Sunday. I assumed she got picked up by a hawk, but she showed up last night relatively unscathed. Now, some of the other hens are pecking her almost like they don't recognize her. She's got bloody wounds on her comb and her...

    I want to add some Muscovies but don't know how many to get. I want them for pest control in the garden, a few eggs (maybe), and hatching ducklings to sell. I can get them straight run from someone locally. I have three Khaki Campbell hens already. How many Muscovies should I get? Three...

    Refrigerator time

    My husband and I processed 5 chickens last Sunday. Nine days ago. I let them rest in the fridge and then went out of town for the holidays-completely forgetting to freeze them before I left, so they're still in the fridge. Should we freeze them or throw them out?

    Ducks chasing chickens

    We have two runner drakes, five chicken hens, and one rooster. All are three months old and have been raised together since day one. They are only separated at night in the coop/run. We let all of them free range during the day, but lately our ducks have started chasing the chickens and nipping...
