Hey there. I have a flock of about 12 muskovey ducks. 3 days ago we noticed a hen stumbling around and weak. She let us pick her right up (which is not normal) I have her seperated in a cage up off the ground now. I noticed this morning now a drake has the same symtoms: think, weak. he is still...

So tomorrow we start our battle with the fleas! There are sooo many of them! I have read lots of posts here about other people fighting the fleas too. I was kinda wondering if the "lack of winter" lasy year may have something to do with this. We never had a freeze to kill off any bugs last...

2 chickens have died in 2 days, otherwise healthy chickens, just dropped dead. Just came back from feed store with Ivomec. How long after I treat them can I eat & sell my eggs again?

SO last week we had 3 turkey die on my farm. I was unsure of what was causing it, I read that Blackhead disease is very common in turkeys. A friend came over and wormed my turkeys with the liquid Ivermectin (sp?) and the last 3 were fine. Before that day I had never wormed the rurkeys in the 4...

So our duck pond is small. Just a 9 x 12 foot. We bought a decent pump, but water is still green. I know the 3 muscoveeys we have poop in the water, but I was really hoping the pump could clear it out. Will go read pump box in a minute and tell ya'll what it is exactually. Is there anything I...

Any info will be appreciated here. I have owned my donkey just a week and today while trimming her hooves my friend pointed out there were spots on her anus & vaginal area and swollen. At 1st I thought it may have been just poo pieces, but it is spots there. And this is the 1st donkey (or large...

I have 2 people that would like me to hatch for them. I have never hatched this time of year and was wondering if cooler temps outside have any affect on the eggs. I mean I can't be in the chicken house staring waiting for them to lay the eggs! Plus even inside my house is in the 60s? I have a...

We just bought a donkey on Saturday. She is so cute! She is 6 years old and she is the light grey color. We own 5 acres and we fenced 1/4 acre for her for now. We are currently fencing the whole property so she will be roaming the whole 5 acres soon! We named her Jenny & she is the best! Today...

Temps have been pretty cool even here in Florida. The back room of the house where I do all my hatching has some "vent issues"too so the room is even cooler. I was thinking about trying to hatch some chicks in about 3 weeks and was just hoping the cooler house temps don't mess with the incubator...

We love our Tom turkey & never had plans to eat him yesterday! He was looking happy and thankful to still be strutting around yesterday! Hope everyone had a GREAT Thanksgiving! Oh...I am not against eatting your own birds, in fact I may do so next year if I have too many Toms

We got our piggies 2 weeks ago. They are now 6 weeks old. They are sooo picky! They are not very interested in pig food or corn. Most veggies aren't their thing either. My DH says to let them eat the pig food, he says when they get hungry they will eat it. They do take a few bites here and...

So we just added the automatic egg turner to our styrofoam incubator and I have a few questions. Now how does this workout if you set eggs at different times in there? Do you turn off the egg turner 3 days before the hatch and if so what about the other eggs I have put in there to hatch at a...

So my husband and I just upgraded to a automatic egg turner. So we are wanting to know if on hatch day or when we see the eggs start to pip is it ok to move them to a box with a light that is the same temp as the incubator? What do we do for the humidity? My husband said we could use a sponge...

Just wondering how long the hens will lay fertile eggs after the rooster breeds with her? Is it a daily thing? Or does his sperm stick around with the hens a few days? We were wanting to hatch another batch out, but 3 days ago we had to lock up poor Tyson. he used to free range with all his...

Never had this happen before. This line of dark brown goo is stuck to my chick and stuck to the egg. Is this the yoke that was not absorbed? What should I do. For now I have left it in incubator. It is fully dried out and hatched roughly 6 hours ago. Thanks

I live in Florida and I have no plans on getting a emu right away. Even though the idea of getting one is very exciting! Someone told me the other day you had to have a permit just to own one! Really? Anyone know the answer to that?
