    Only One Fertile Duck Egg, Now What?

    Our Rouen duck Magnolia went broody just before Easter, so we decided to give her some eggs to hatch. We gave her four duck eggs, two were apparently not fertilized and were discarded, and two were developing quite nicely. Unfortunately, one of the eggs was destroyed this morning. We are pretty...

    Possible Respiratory/Sinus Infection In Khaki Campbell

    One of our Khaki Campbells, Catriona, has been occasionally coughing and having sneezing fits for the last two or three days. Other than that, she seemed fine, just as jolly, loud, and boisterous as ever, huge appetite, drinking, bathing, and following her adored drake, Alligator Bob, with...

    Mulch Mining and Other Deep Litter Questions

This summer, we got two truckloads of fresh mulch from a local arborist company, and have been using this as well as the remains of a previous mulch pile from last year.

    Cayuga Duck Respiratory Infection

    Our almost one-year-old Cayuga, Flora McDonald, has been coughing for about a week. We didn't think much of it at first (she had a weird little cough last year, that went away eventually), but the day before yesterday she started to have trouble breathing. Now her breathing is audible and more...

    Drake Prolapse Amputation: Yea or Nay?

    This is Alligator Bob. He is brave, smart, handsome, a doer of valorous deeds and much more interesting than Boo, the World’s Cutest Dog. At any rate, poor Bobbie has had a relatively slight penis prolapse for about a month. For a while, I was just keeping an eye on it, applying hydrocortisone...
