poopy butts
My neighbor got 6 chickens and was neglecting them and after a few discussions she turned them over to me. Out of the 6 one was on the verge of death when we go them and she did not make it. I took 2 of the healthiest chickens over to my in laws where the rest of our chickens are. The three left...- karbear

Worried about Wilma!
My female Pekin's quack sounds different. I can't quite put a finger on what's different. It almost has a honking sound to it. Does anyone know of a website that has a sample of different quacking? I know that sounds funny but I remember finding a website about different types of chickens noises... -

antibiotics
There are a lot of posts that say to use baytril for bumblefoot. Can that be ordered online without a prescription? Is there antibiotics that can be ordered without prescription? Oral or Topical. -
Help.
Is there supposed to be so much blood when you dig into bumblefoot? Worried there is to much blood coming out. Anyone in western Washington who has experience with Bumblefoot? Vet care at this time is not an option. I thought it was getting better and then I left it alone for a week or so and it... -
I love my babies!
I love my ducks so much I made sue I can see their cage and run from the kitchen window. The only problem is that when I go into the kitchen they can see me and when I don't have time to let them out I sure do feel bad! Or when I am getting ready for work I sneak past the window so they don't... -
Questions?
So Wilma has bumblefoot. I have been bathing and wrapping and putting neosporin on. I hasn't gotten any worse. I even think I have another ointment that I have used the last couple of days that might even be working better than neosporin. I have not dug out any "seeds" not enough hands and the... -

WooooooHOOOOO!
My new duck diaper harnesses are here! I LOVE them. I will be taking pictures tomorrow and will post them. I can already tell the difference from the ones I have currently been using. Without even trying them on I can tell I like these one better than my old ones! Thanks Nettie!!!! -

duck pens
I have my ducks free ranging around the yard when I am at home but when I am not and at nightime they are in their pen. The "pen" is a chainlink dog kennel aprox 10 feet by 10 feet. I have the top covered with fiberglass roof panels. There is a hutch in there as well that they can climb in or... -
Animals
I love having all my animals. But having to be the grime reaper just plain sucks! Baby chicks are so adorable and April is a great mama. I just can't believe she set so soon. I am definitely not going to incubate duck eggs this year. Not sure I could handle any bad endings. I must be... -
Kinda funny!
Last night my ducks came in while I was making dinner as they do many nights. I put broccoli pieces down on the kitchen floor and they eat it all up. When done we all headed to the front room to settle down to watch tv. Wonka is doing funny things with his bill but stops. Then Wilma and Wonka... -
food mess
I love my ducks who are now almost 6 months. I am okay with the cleaning their pool, fresh drinking water, changing their bedding and even hosing off the back entrance to the house from all the duck poo they deposit as they wait by the door when they want in. The thing that bothers me is all the... -
Coyotes
Well, after years of having chickens, cows, horses, cats, dogs and most recently ducks at my inlaws house a coyote got off with a couple of our chickens last night. grrrrrr. Our ducks whom we have had about a year and a half disappeared 4 or 5 days ago. But we just figured maybe they went off... -
Hidden Eggs
I am learning how much Wilma likes to hide her eggs. The last couple of days I have found her eggs in her nest all covered up. I found two the other day and I had thought she just didn't lay the day before. Todays was buried even more. I don't think she wants me to have them.
