    Help! Weird egg!

    I just went out to collect eggs from this morning and found this egg! At first I thought it was from my Cayuga, but it washed off the bloom and it was a white egg. Any ideas what will cause this? I cracked it open and the the inside looked good.

    Furacin/DMSO/Baytril For bumblefoot?

    has anyone used a combination of DMSO and furacin or DMSO and baytril to treat bumblefoot? How were the results? If treating with baytril and dmso, how did you mix the solution? I’m having no luck with triple antibiotic and was looking for something stronger. Any comments or suggestions...

    Bumblefoot

    hey guys.. I have what I believe is a bad case of bumblefoot. I noticed it Saturday night. It’s my first encounter with this. I’ve done tons of research and found everyone uses a different method. I tried soaking her in Epsom salt and pulling off the scab, but didn’t get anything out. So I...

    Drake prolapse?

    I just went out to check on my ducks, and my drakes penis is hanging out and dark colored. I’ve heard at the end of mating season, it shrivels up and dies like an umbilical cord. I don’t know if that’s a myth, or valid?? I’m not sure if that’s what I’m seeing, or if he has a prolapse. Any...

    Geese and their mates

    I have kind of a long story here, but was looking for some insight. 3 weeks ago I adopted 2 geese from a large animal rescue in my area. The man that adopted them out didn't know much about the geese. They had a flock of about 10 and he just asked me to pick out which ones I wanted. He said if...

    What breed are these geese?

    Yesterday I rescued 2 geese from a local farm animal rescue. They didn’t know much about the geese, but thought they were both females. They were more petite than some of the other geese. Any ideas on what breed they may be? Or if they’re male or female? Thanks!

    Flock guardians?

    7 Drakes...

    I got 10 straight run ducklings from my local feed store about 8 weeks ago. I have tried voice sexing them all and I’m pretty sure I have 7 drakes and 3 hens. :barnie Any advice on what to do?

    hi all- I’ve been contemplating the idea of hatching some ducks eggs, but I’m not sure the best incubator to get. I’m looking for something relatively cheap, but one that’s user friendly for my first time. Any suggestions?

    Ducks becoming less friendly

    hi all- I have 10 khaki Campbell’s. They’re 6 weeks old. They’ve always been a little flighty around me, but would come up to me for treats. I’ve noticed the last couple days, they want nothing to do with me. I keep a schedule with them, talking to them the same way I always did, feeding and...
