    Went to go buy ducklings and it was disturbing..

    So there was this guy selling muscovies on Craigslist and today we went to go get some. $15 a piece when they're typically only around $5 here. So we get there and go to the guys backyard and well let me just say what I saw broke my heart. Their living area is so so awful. It's very dirty. Their...

    Young turkeys with dry fowl pox and mycoplasma at the same time

    I have turkeys that are probably around 2 months old. We have some older ones (same breed) that got the fowl pox around that age but they were/are fine, they are just now getting the mycoplasma somehow. But the 2 month old ones are a completely different story than the older ones. These guys got...

    disclaimer: this may not work for every single individual bird (scroll to the bottom for the water recipe) The mycoplasma in the flock has just spread to the turkeys. I made this water for them and it helped one of the larger ones within days. Her eye was swollen and crusted shut, then one day...

    Sick after cleaning coop?

    I wasn't sure if this was the right topic to post this in, but I have a concern. About a week ago, I was cleaning the coop. I scraped all the boards and decided to dig down and get all those layers of old hay out (ground was getting too high for the door). I went through 3 masks while cleaning...

    Another post about my sick bantam. Please help!

    Hi, this is my second post about my spangled OEGB hen. She went broody for about a month and a half (because the chickens laid eggs on her for a bit and we just left the eggs that had already started developing and made a door only she could get through) She hasn't laid since then. It's been...

    Ayam Cemani Lays Weird Eggs?

    I have an ayam cemani hen named Raven. Ever since she started laying eggs, they have either been soft shelled or very deformed. She's over a year old now and stopped with the soft shells (thank god). But she has never once laid a normal shaped egg. I've hatched quite a few of them and raised the...

    My blue eyed muscovy Natalie!!

    I got 2 baby muscovies almost a year ago and I noticed one had blue eyes. Every muscovy and every picture of one I've seen has blue eyes. The only blue eyed ones I've seen are the white muscovies. I named one Natalie and one Clyde, but when they got older I found out their genders were the...

    Is my duck eggbound or sick?

    Hi, I have a muscovy female that is about a year old now. She seems to have had problems walking a few times, but we always just thought it was because she lost strength from sitting on her nest 24/7. She's trying to make a nest now, but she made 7 eggs. 2 I found crushed by the pool, 1 kicked...

    Why are my male ducks dying randomly in their sleep?

    Idk if death goes under this category but oh well. I had a Welsh Harlequin drake who died at around 6 months old. What was weird is that he never showed any signs of illness or anything like that. We just got up the next day to see that he was dead. He ate fine drank fine and everything was...

    Sick Duckling?

    So we took these two muscovy ducklings from some apartments (before i found out its not legal 😕) The moms always have like 14 and end up with 1 or 2 so we thought, "why not take them home and give them a better longer life?" They have since been domesticated and are very sweet. We have one named...
