    How to get chickens to gain weight?

    My chickens have access to unlimited food, but they’re all underweight. They’re fed Dumor layer pellets with veggie/fruit scraps, grass, weeds, and bugs. What will help them gain weight? Their keel/breastbone is prominent, but they’re all being fed well.

    Freaking feather lice!

    alright, I’ve been treating my small flock (9) for about 5 weeks with poultry and garden powder for stupid feather lice. Is there anything (not ridiculously expensive) that I can buy and bathe them in that will kill all the lice AND the freaking eggs?? I’m so tired of having to do this every...

    Recall Training?

    How do I recall train pigeons? I have a couple rollers, and a few homing pigeons (I do pigeon rescue, so I never know what I’ll get next). Any advice would be great, thanks! I want to do it as safely as possible, not a lot of predators in my area, but I really don’t want any of them to just fly...

    Brakel Chickens?

    So what's up? Are these the "rare breed" this person is claiming? It was posted in my local backyard pet chickens group, and I've never heard of a Brakel chicken (but I haven't hear of a whole bunch of other breeds either) Also, how can this person tell they're roosters? They look too young to...

    Tell Me About Guineas

    Alright. A little while back, a fox got 4 of my chickens, and just last night, a cat somehow managed to get my 3 chicks. I've heard Guineas can make great additions to the flock and are on constant alert for dangers, and get LOUD if something is out of place. Tell me ALL about Guineas. What...

    Abandoned duck eggs, no incubator... Will this work?

    Someone told me I would get more replies here than on the duck forum. I have a duck named Hula who recently hatched 6 ducklings, with still 8 eggs to go. Well, she kinda ditched her nest and the chickens decided to dig around and ruined the nest and buried her eggs. I was able to get all of them...

    Duckling/egg Question

    So, how should I go about handling the ducklings my girl is going to have (they're due in approx. a week)? I don't want to take them all from her since she's been doing all the sitting, but I also don't have the time or space for 10 (or more) ducklings, so I'm going to be rehoming some. Will it...

    Breed Guesses?

    So, we got 4 ducklings from Tractor Supply a few months back, they were mixed breed/sexes... Three of them are drakes, and the female (mine) is the smallest. Her name is Hula and the breed guesses for when she was a duckling (first few pics) were Blue Swedish or Khaki Campbell - I believe she is...

    Duck Harnesses

    So, when the ducklings get older I really want to be able to take them on short trips, and I learned of duck harnesses. What do you guys think of them? Do they work? Are they safe? And if you have one/some, do you think it was a waste of money or do you like it? Last of all, if you like them do...

    Quick Duckling Question

    I know that ducks have an oil they spread on their body to keep them waterproof, and that their moms usually use their oil to spread on their ducklings so the ducklings can swim at a younger age. My question is how old should ducklings be before they start swimming?
