    Roo and Hens are being "picky"

    That's good to know. Where did you get the purple stuff? My little girl is black, so it shouldn't be that noticeable.

    Roo and Hens are being "picky"

    Ok. I actually had 4 chicks in the starter cage, but 3 were roosters. So I found them new homes. My Molly had only been alone for a day when I moved her to the other run. So far, no blood shed. Just a lot of feather pulling...

    Roo and Hens are being "picky"

    I have 1 roo and 3 hens that are being a little mean to a new hen. I understand the pecking order and all, but I don't get why the roo is doing it. It's been 3 days, how much longer should I let it go? She is a June hatch that I kept (from the birds that are being mean), been in a cage attached...

    Help with feather problem

    Thank you for the info. I don't know how old she is, and I think she's an African goose...I'll have to get some sod to plant since she can't free graze. I'll check into getting vitamins for her.

    Have goose, need food!

    What do geese eat? I have inherited a goose and it won't eat the duck feed...only cracked corn!

    Help with feather problem

    This poor goose has a feather problem. I thought she was molting at first, but it's been a while and they look worse. She came to my Mom looking this way so I was wondering what I can do about it. These pics aren't the best, but they are of her wings and back. You can see some skin in her elbow...

    Mourning White Chinese Goose

    My Mom had a pair of female geese come up in her yard(long story) and her companion disappeared. She was mourning terribly(we thought she was dying), so I brought her home to friend my duck(who had companions, but thanks to neighbor dogs, is alone). In one day, they are eating side by side. It...

    Feeding baby chicks

    Okay...the move was successful! I went to the store today and came home to her out of the box with the 3 new babies on the ground. So, I gave her some more hay and moved the eggs under her. She is such a sweet bird! She still has 12 eggs to go...whew! and another hen on another 11... I'm...

    Feeding baby chicks

    I would have to do it in the dark, which is easy. She's a great girl, let's me mess with her and her babies. I hold them and cuddle them with her right there. I'll move her tonight and post in the morning. I think that will work. Thanks for the advice!

    Feeding baby chicks

    Thanks! I will do that. Will it hurt to move her? She is in a nest that is off the ground, and chick #2 has arrived. She has about 7 more to go, so I was going to put her in a smaller pen to be alone with her babies.

    Feeding baby chicks

    My hen is hatching chicks. When should I introduce the food and water? There is one so far going on 24hrs old. This is the first time I've had babies this young. I usually get them from Tractor Supply.

    splayed legs? New duckling has me worried.

    It only took maybe a week for him to get walking right. We thought we were going to have to brace him, too, but we let him work it out first.

    splayed legs? New duckling has me worried.

    This is him on my daughters lap "playing" toys with the kids... ...and this is him after about 2 1/2 months later! They grow sooooo fast!!! They are sooooo cute! Makes me want more! Mine was that coloring and turned out to be a Mallard!

    My New Baby Pekins! (Photos and questions)

    SOOOO cute!!! Makes me want to get more! They grow very fast, so enjoy! It takes about 54 days to get adult size. I had a friend take pics of her little ones to chart the growth. I couldn't believe it! Have Fun!!

    If you could only have one duck: male or female?

    Whichever way you go, get 2. Ducks are social creatures and love to interact...I don't know if they would be happy with just chickens. I have pekins, and they are LOUD!!! My neighbors have ducks (1/4 mile distance) and I hear them... and beware, they are like little pigs...very messy and love...
