Hello everyone! Hope all is well! It’s been a while since I have posted. I guess “No news is good news” until now. Yesterday I noticed one of my free ranging blue Swedish ducks was keeping her eye shut. Upon further inspection, she keeps both eyelids shut on her right eye and gunky white goop is...
Hello all!
I haven’t posted in a while, but I have come across an issue that I need some advice on.
I currently have a Rouen Drake and 4 Blue Swedish hens. They are about a year old and get along great. Today I went to my local feed store and they had a lone 14 week old silver appleyard hen. I...
