Since then I have been gathering her eggs in the hopes of incubating them. Is it more difficult to incubate turkeys than chicken eggs? I...

    New goslings?

    My son said he was going to order me some goslings. Other than size, how do they differ from ducks? Will they need anything special as babies or adults? Can they be housed with ducks, or will they need their own place?

    Something killed my chickens!

    I've set traps, to no avail. All but four of my chickens have been killed. Whatever it was didn't bother the ducks or the turkeys. It would eat the heads of the chooks, there was no blood. And sometimes, not always, the abdomen was eaten out too. Any idea of what it could be?

    No eggs....Are my hens too old?

    My hens stopped laying in October. Not one egg since. Some of my hens are 4 years old. And some of them were chicks from this past spring. Is it normal for them to not lay that long? When should I expect eggs? Or should I just resign myself to store-bought until spring? Also, does anyone know...
