I have two muscovy hens.. raised from ducklings. One has always been a turd to my kids but now she is attacking me. Last week I had blood blisters on my ankle from her. Today she ripped skin off my hands drawing blood. I literally can’t do my duck chores without being attacked. What happened...
I was thinking about ordering a wide variety of ducks. I can’t make up my mind on which ones I would like .. hence the variety. I currently have two muscovy hens. Is it a bad idea to mix like that? I also would like to get one Drake. But I don’t know what breed would be best 🙈🙈 how on earth do...
I have golden giant, Italian, and wild type.. I think. Can I feather sex the mixes? The wild type seems to be extremely obvious but if they are mixes can I trust it? No one has foam yet 🙈 I was confident on a couple.. until I read you can’t feather sex mixes? Thank you!!
This person is giving away a duck.. got it as a “cool pet” and they don’t like it anymore. I want to help it out anyone know what breed it “looks” like..? Thank you😊
I found a camel spider in my quail run.. after screaming my head off I squished it.. I’m afraid there could be more. I do not know what to do. I’m pretty sure they eat small birds😑 any bird safe suggestions?
I go outside every hour to check on my ducks and quail.. make sure everyone’s doing OK. Check on water, eggs etc. The last check I notice one of my duck acting off. They usually chat with me when they see me approaching, nibble my feet. wag their butts. always. Only one got up. The other one...
They were hatched on Father’s Day and I am super convinced that one is a drake.. significantly larger then the other. Does that automatically mean drake..? I wish I could vent sex them but I can’t 😕 also what color is this...? Thank you🙃
I purchased them from someone who guarantees the gender. I picked them up the day they hatched. Is it actually possible to know the day they hatch? She has been raising animals for 30+ years.. just nervous one is a drake because it is quite a bit bigger then the other! I don’t feel comfortable...
I didn’t know this was possible?? I suspected they were stealing my eggs. There were some days I wouldn’t get any eggs from my birds and I would find a squirrel burrow. Today they killed my quail. Not only did they kill it but they ate its head. I’m 100% sure it was a squirrel. I have exterior...
I have quail for meat and eggs.. but I don’t know I can actually.. do the deed for the meat part! Killing the quail then processing? How did you get passed it? I have too many males and I was thinking about processing one of the really small females. But how??? 😓😓
I can’t seem to figure out the gender of my Quail. I know for sure the one with the dark mask is a male. He has obvious foam. None of the other Quail have foam. The unknown have a hatch date of March 2th. Wouldn’t they be laying by now? Wouldn’t they have foam if they were male? Help pleaseeee🙈🙈
