    Egg gathering question??

    I work nights, and when I got home this morning, there was an egg in one of the boxes. I don't know what time it was laid, but the birds got put up around 7:30 - 8 last night.

    Question about sitting duck

    I have a duck that is a little over a year old now. She has attempted to hatch several clutches of eggs to no avail. My drakes had gotten killed by, I am assuming, coyotes last Nov/Dec. Therefore, eggs aren't fertilized... Unless the wild mallards that frequent the tanks have come into my yard...

    Oh... they grow up so fast... PIC HEAVY

    I got my babies' coop finished Sunday evening and moved them in. They have thoroughly been enjoying all the space. They run around and can flap their wings. Still have to make another house though for turkeys & guineas but they are sharing for now. I know it's risky with turkeys and chickens...

    I thought I was gonna lose this sweet baby...

    This little one had, I am suspecting anyway, a very bad case of constipation. It had been just standing around for the last day and a half, feathers fluffed out and seemed very fatigued. The others would just walk right over the top of her. I removed her and put her by herself yesterday morning...
