They are 3 weeks old. That's when I always put them out.

i was moving my chicks from the brooder to my tractor and I noticed one of them had a cut! what do i do!!!

So collecting my eggs after work today I noticed some of my chickens got out of the run. So of corse I started looking around the yard for eggs. I happen to find 3 hidden in the corner by the house. the only problem is they were brown and none of the chickens that were loose lay brown eggs. I...

They all sounded the same so I couldn't tell the difference. Lol. And I don't want male ducks, I wanted to reproduce for meat....

I was afraid I had 3 drake

Ducks are about 3 months old and the 2 thats I thought were females look like they might be getting drake feathers. I'm a first time duck owner so I have no clue what I'm looking at.

Ok that sounds good. I don't really want to cull her. She's my first and only hen I hatched myself. But if I had to for the sake of he other 6 I would. Thank you.

They've got enough grass. Keeping her isn't going to cause issues with eating other eggs? That's my biggest concern.

Anyone?

I've done that there was no change. I also free feed oyster shells. No change. I'm sorry I forgot ro add that.

I'm sure this topic has been covered 10 times over. Mine I think is a little different. One of my hens seems to be laying really thin shelled more round eggs making them very weak. So weak that I have broken her eggs on many occations just picking them up. I noticed that if I don't get in the...

Yeah I was thinking those 2 looking more like rouens as well. And the darker one without the bid might be more of a rouen swedish cross maybe. I also agree that the bibbed one might be black swedish.

Anyone?

I got 4 blue Swedish ducks from tractor supply 8 weeks ago. I can't figure out if they are really blue swedish and no idea what sex they are. I'm attaching a few picture. If anyone could help me that would be amazing. I'm hoping to keep one drake and one or 2 hens if I actually have both. PLEASE...

So I'm trying to figure out a way to keep my chickens a little warmer this winter. We're supposed to have a cold snap tonight and I would really like it if i don't have frozen chicken in my coop (they belong in my freezer). I close my coop door at night this time of year to keep the wind out and...

Yeah I saw the feathered feet. But when I first found it i thought it was the same bird. I think i would go with the maran over that $50 day old bird any day!

Well they are darn pretty whatever they are... This is the blue copper maran I found. looked a lot like that one.

Thanks! Blue copper maran maybe?...

That is a REALLY pretty bird. What kind is it and where can I get one! Sorry if this has already been answered...

I'm almost thinking it might be because he's one of the younger chickens. I have 2 groups, ones that were hatched end of April and ones i got mid June. When I put them together he was by far NOT the head chick! He's got his 3 girls but the other 4 want nothing to do with him and had actually...
