    Help! Voice sexing my ducklings

    Hello fellow duck lovers! A few weeks ago, I was told to wait for the ducklings to be 7 weeks old to voice sex them. That's what I did and now is the long awaited time to figure out if these cuties are males or females. I took short videos of each of my ducks so hopefully you guys will be able...

I would rather be too gentle than too harsh while vent sexing them, so I probably...

    Bloody nesting box

    Hi everyone! Today I went to feed the girls and get the eggs from the nesting box. That's when I noticed some blood next to some of the eggs. Weirdly there was no bloody eggs and none of my ten hens had blood on their feathers. I'm a bit worried since that has never happened in the three years...
