    Building a pond? Told I couldn't!

    So I have some ducks and I really wanted to build them an area where they can go swimming, like, actually swimming, not just a tiny plastic pool like they have now. However, I've been told that I can't do that, because the water will become toxic to my chickens after two days of the ducks being...

    Chicks have weird feather growth, concern over it being the start of Angel wing. Help?

    I am aware that they're just barely getting their feathers in, they're just about to turn two weeks old now, but, none of the chicks I've raised previously have had... this. I was wondering if this is normal, or, if it's not, how would I treat it? These are two chicks sired from my own flock...

    Looking into Spiral leg bands! Breed help for size context?

    So I'm looking to buy some new, better legbands for my flock that won't be so bulky (I bought a bag of the large plastic ones that lock, they fall off easily and just don't seem comfortable) and I seen Spiral leg bands were a common recommendation! My problem is my chickens are all different...

    Wondering what breed of ducks I might have gotten?

    So while I was at the store a few weeks ago, I seen they had some ducklings for sale, they had no breed specifications, and nobody knew anything about ducks there. I haven't raised ducks in a long while, so I was wondering what breeds they might be? They're about three weeks old at this point...

    [Deceased] Looking for possible breed or genetics

    So I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of what this fellow might have been? We bought five chicks off of a local breeder, all where supposed to be sexed Silver-laced chocolate orpingtons (they were not sexed lol), but one of them was this super light chick compared to the rest...

    Anything else I can do for her?

    I woke up this morning to see that one of my Aloha chicks had managed to get out of their safety pen outside, and, the big nasty chicken my mom insists on keeping had been pecking at her. I didn't realize until I got out there to put her back in with the others just how badly she was injured by...

    Help with prolapses?

    I was trying to clean my week old chicks this morning, because my mom forgot to turn off the overhead fan when she went to bed last night and three of the chicks I have had some pretty nasty pasty butt when I got up, so I ran some warm water over their bums, wet down a paper towel with warm...

    Pullets or cockerels?

    My older chicks are starting to develope enough to where I can probably get some accurate readings on them, so I wanted to ask for help with sexing them. I'm pretty sure I have three cockerels, but, I wanted opinions, as I'm not familiar with any of these breeds or their growth stages They're...

    Was there a reason?

    So my seven eggs hatched today, but, there was a lot of complications and I'm just wondering why that might have been. They all managed to survive, as of now at least, but this morning they all started to crack out of their eggs, some actually made really large cracks in their shells, and one...

    Pullet or cockerel?

    Hiya, so, I ended up buying a group of five chocolate silver-laced Orps from a local breeder, I unfortunately didn't get to raise them from hatching, I got them where they were between two and five weeks old (all different ages) and the breeder sexed them on pick-up, they said they should all be...
