Alright so i am not sure what happened but i now have one of my ducks that is having issues walking. we don't have the money to take it to the vet. what would be the best thing to do for it? it was born in may so it is 7 months old now and this is the first issue that we have had with it. if...
i kept the babies in a water trough for the first couple weeks it did alright until about 2.5 weeks old then it was just to small for the 11 ducklings.
right now i have 12 ducklings 1 is about 6 weeks and the other 11 are about 3 weeks old. i think that the 6 week old is a male the rest i have no clue they were mixed ducks straight run from metzer's. should i order more mixed ducks that are female or will they all be alright during matting...
I agree this site is bad for you just looking at all the post that are on this thread makes me want to add some more turkeys but this time something like that chocolate one. I have 3 white ones now but I really like the coloring of that chocolate one thanks y'all
is 4-h the older kids or the younger kids? i have a 4th grader going into the 5th with rabbits but sense we have poultry we will be putting him into the poultry one as well. so we are interested and could pick up Wednesday.
when i looked at it today there was no blood along its side so i didnt get into it more
i was going to put my 2 week old ducks in that pen so i took them all out so they can walk the yard (the 2 week olds were to small for the 2" wire) so the turkey's and the older duck that i call turkey are...
well when i started getting the ducks i wanted to order some from metzer's and they had a link to here so i started looking at different things and figured i would sign up and learn from everyone. i am sure this is one of the better places to get my questions answered when they come up.
i had...
after reading everyones post i feel like i am neglecting my ducks. they get flock raiser and water. the one that is 5 weeks old has been in an outside pen for a couple weeks now so it eats bugs and grass and stuff off the ground but that is it. am i a bad duck owner should i be feeding them all...
well that is a good thought too. my 5 week old duck is living in a smaller pin that is out in the open with 3 turkeys that are about a month older then it is. the turkeys are now smaller then the duck but could they have attacked the duck? and if so would they just go after the one wing? we have...
I have a duck that is about 5 weeks old i am not sure what breed it is but it has one of its wing tips that is bloody aswell. i am so glad i found your thread. I was not sure if it had gotten cought on the fince or if a cat got it or what could have happend to it but i am glad to know that i am...
that is true and that is the closest that i have seen so far is this just not the poultry area of the state? it seems likeeveryone is from the central part of the state
is there anyone that is close to hermiston? it would be nice to know somepeople that are close. anyway if there are anypeople close just let me know thanks
i would have to ask how old you are? i have a 10 year old that is suposed to take care of 2 rabbits, not buy the food or anything else, just feed and water them and it does not happen. i usualy end up doing it all my self. so i would have to agree with nsampsel what happens if you fail in your...
